Almost as soon as Donald Trump assumed the presidency, he breathed life back into NASA, an agency attacked and decimated under Obama/Biden—turned from its mission to explore and inhabit the universe to ruminating about the myth of anthropogenic climate change, a deliberate Malthusian ploy to reduce the world’s population by millions and impose a new feudal order. Now, NASA and Artemis, critical to America’s national mission and any real economic revival, are in mortal danger once again, and LaRouche PAC intends to fight back through a mass popular mobilization.

For time immemorial, humans have gazed up in wonder at the sky—at the moon and the planets beyond. Now, humanity is moving to inhabit space itself at rapid speed. The instruments and spacecraft heading to the Moon and Mars and the science and research now underway in Low Earth Orbit, will pave the way for the great advance of humanity into the solar system—humanity’s new frontier.

The spectacular launch to the International Space Station on Sunday November 15, of the Crew-1, Resilience Mission from Cape Canaveral’s Pad 39A in Florida, aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon Rocket generated international excitement. It involved a four person crew: Astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker, and JAXA Japanese Partner Astronaut, Soichi Noguchi. The Crew-1 docked to Station following a 27.5 hour flight. The mission took place on the Anniversary of another historic mission in space flight, the launch of Expedition 1, 20 years ago to the International Space Station. For 20 years, these missions have been “advancing humanity by using the space station to learn how to explore farther than ever before, while also conducting research and technology demonstrations benefiting life back on Earth.”

The NASA/SpaceX Crew 1 mission of four astronauts successfully launched to the International Space Station (ISS) this evening at 7:27 p.m. EST (Monday 00:27 UTC). All systems performed as intended and docking at the ISS should take place around 11 p.m. EST Monday evening (Tuesday 04:00 UTC). All of the years of work on this system have paid off. The NASA announcer as the rocket cleared the launch pad into the sky said: “Not even gravity contains humanity when we explore as one for all!”
