Am I the only one not interested this? They did something more complicated over 50 years ago, What's new?
Or is this big news because it's the first real trip to the moon?

The Tom Hanks trip was way more interesting. Just compare the computer technology of this mission to that of prior lunar trips. The 2026 version doesn't need people, they're passengers.

Have you seen the explanatory video of how the Houston screens worked? Phenomenal stuff, long before massive digital LED screens etc.
