“Because we’re going back to the f—– moon.” Kid live on CNN at the Artemis II launch.

This kid absolutely DUNKED on this CNN reporter! Vince Carter 2000 gif!

Poor guy thought he was going to interview a pre-teen space nerd and get a feel good soundbite and instead he got faced on live TV. “Why do I wanna be here?? Ask another dumb question you f—– dweeb.” Classic!

Kind of reminds me of one of my favorite kid interviews of all time. This young buck was posted up for some free chicken at a restaurant grand opening:

Need space kid and fried chicken kid to chop it up on a podcast together before they both become union pipe fitters for the next 35 years.

Related: The Artemis launch was pretty cool yesterday. Although I will say this: NASA had the chance to dole out one of the greatest April Fools’ Day pranks of all time. It would have been up there with the BBC spaghetti harvest or Taco Bell purchasing the Liberty Bell. Years of preparation, thousands in attendance, millions watching at home, and they could have just said, “GOTCHA!” and gone down in history. Going to the moon is cool but a HOF April Fools’ Day prank? Legendary.

Also: Not Great!

Of all of the things to go haywire during launch, the toilet?? Is this the only one on the ship??? If that’s the case I think it’s safe to say we’ve got another Apollo 13 situation on our hands.

PS: Confirmed on by Chat GPT, the four astronauts on the ship share one toilet. Disaster.

Double PS: Toilet fix:
