Well the countdown to blast off is on for NASA with Artemis II set to launch in the coming days. Final preparations are currently underway for the 10-day mission to the Moon, the first of its kind since 72. The main goal of Artemis II is for the first time to fly crew. So we're flying astronauts on this mission and we're going to take them and we're going to fly around the Moon and back. So this will be the first time we've flown crew out to the Moon since 1972. Amazing it's been revealed what the brave astronauts get to eat on board and it seems they're pretty sport for choice. There are five different hot sauces, 58 tortillas and a variety of sweet treats from pudding to cake, chocolate and cookies. I don't know about the hot sauce that might be a blast off of another card. I don't know if I want to be in a time-confined space of people are not so interesting. I'll leave that with you.
