April 3, 2026 – Artemis II and You

Fri, Apr 3, 2026

I picked the worst weekend to go get lost in the woods! You’re telling me, this week, NASA sent the first mission to the moon in 50 years, and I won’t be able to talk about it on TLO?? UGH Terrible timing, but we celebrate nonetheless! Three cheers to the crew of Artemis II and Rise, their moon mascot courageously speeding towards a LUNAR ORBIT as we speak.

Not sure if you’ve been following how social this mission is, but I implore you to tune into the capsule live stream that NASA is putting on. Absolutely incredible that we can join the crew as they hurtle through space, complete with live radio transmissions – Check it out here: NASA’s Artemis II Live Mission Coverage (Official Broadcast)

In the meantime, I’m bringing you a rerun of some amazing music from last April. Since we’re headed into the height of spring I thought I’d bring back one of the new release’s episodes from last week.

I will be live in the studio next episode to reflect on the NASA mission and share some killer tracks in honor of it. Until then keep looking up!
