It's now been moved to April. Also, Isaacman (better known as Dumbo) sent out a NASA-wide missive saying Artemis III will not be landing on the moon. The hypocrisy is amazing in that he talks about how they've lost some "muscle memory of experienced engineers" and that needs to be recreated. Uhmm.....I wonder if Musk/DOGE cutting 20% of their experienced engineers early in this idiotic administration's beginnings was such a great idea?

By the way, in case anyone wasn't aware, NASA is now on their third "administrator". The psychopath in the White House loves chaos.
