The YES team has just finished training to learn how to survive the return trip to the Moon. Now they are wearing their orange suits and are sitting inside the ORION spacecraft which is inside the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket and they are waiting for the launch. <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>: Ready girls? The countdown will begin shortly. <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli:<\/strong> Since we are inside the SLS, in America, the countdown should be in English. <\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi<\/strong>: I don’t understand. But why are we going to the Moon again? What didn’t we learn in 1969 when we went on the Apollo 11 mission? <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli:<\/strong> Especially now that everyone is going to the Moon: India, Japan, Russia, to name a few I remember. <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>:\u2026 and South Korea and Israel. I heard that the Moon will be the first stop on a trip to Mars.<\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi<\/strong>: Well, whoever wants to go and land wherever he wants without asking anyone? I mean, anyone can come into our house? <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>: Don’t you girls remember when the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft landed on asteroid 101955 Bennu in 2020? <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli:<\/strong> Aaah, he visited our friend! He told me the spacecraft sat on him like a mosquito. <\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi<\/strong>: It was really like a mosquito. He also took material from his soil and returned it to Earth. <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>: Now, we are going to the moon and then we will return to Earth again. About 10 days will take the total trip. <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli:<\/strong> 10 days without bathing? <\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi:<\/strong> 10 days without delivery of our coffee? <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>: Girls, after learning about all this, you want to go to the Moon. You now know how to live, for example, in non gravity situations. <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli:<\/strong> We learned how to brush our teeth inside ORION! <\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi:<\/strong> I read that the moon is 385,000 kilometers away. If we went in your car, Adrian and we ran at 100 kilometers per hour, when would we arrive? <\/p>\n\n

Adrian<\/strong>: In 3,850 hours. That is, we would arrive in about 160 days, if we went with my car. <\/p>\n\n

431 Nefeli<\/strong>: But now let’s go with the SLS rocket! In about 3 days we will be there. <\/p>\n\n

98 Ianthi:<\/strong> Let’s enjoy a simulation of our trip by watching the following video: <\/p>\n\n
