Artemus II mission

April 1, 2026

Before we send human beings
to fly around the moon,
to travel into deep space,
test the spaceship’s navigation systems
with 4 live humans on board,
paving the way for lunar habitation
and people exploring the resources of Mars,
how about we put money into
saving THIS stunningly beautiful planet
with the thin layer of ozone that supports
all life?
how about we stop dumping plastic into the oceans,
stop destruction of the life-sustaining rainforest,
put an end to poaching and senseless violence?
That seems more important to me.
