I need a new armchair and I think about it every time I see the word Artemis. My recliner is worn out, I've had it for 7 years and I do most of the reading and work on it. They sell reclining armchairs with all the trimmings, heating messages and electric extending foot rest on those budget sites. The trouble is you don't get to try it until you get it in the post. You just have to trust the customer ratings. If 300 people say the product is very comfortable then it probably is.
I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself. My twitter I.D. is @alspresso.

Artemis and Armchair
I was reading through some of the NASA blogs and noticed that they had more or less finished building the most powerful vehicle ever made by mankind, the Orion Space Rocket. This spring will be the beginning of the Artemis Space missions. I was given the impression by the NASA blogs that the first mission will be a flyby, the astronauts will go around the far side of the moon and back to earth without landing; they are brave souls. They know how dangerous it is but they are going ahead with it. The radiation in deep space is unpredictable and very dangerous. They sit on a rocket that could malfunction and explode. I think the moon flyby will be on the first week of March.
