1831 – April

April

April was not aware of NASA’s plans to send the first woman to the moon in 2024. Also, she was a little surprised that 1972 was the last time we sent people to the moon. She thought we would have gone more frequently once we figured out how. And while she thinks it will be a good accomplishment to go back, it is not something that she is likely to celebrate.

1834 – Sterling

I met Sterling at downtown Houston. He had heard about NASA’s plans to land an astronaut on the moon in 2024. He thinks it will inspire some people especially younger people in elementary. But he thinks that it needs to benefit all people. We should not go for the sake of going. When asked about something the astronauts should do on the moon, he suggested playing volleyball.

1836 -Sammy Giammalva

Talked to Sammy Giammalva at the tennis club. He had not heard about the NASA’s plans to land on the moon. He thinks that if it was in the news then more people might know about it. He is not sure what we hope to accomplish but he hopes that it is something significant.

Today I talked to Aubrey at the coffee shop. She had not heard of NASA’s plans to go to the moon. But she thought it was pretty cool. And she would be willing to go.

1839 – Cole & Evi

Cole and Evi

Today I talked to Cole and Evi and the gym about the Artemis Program. They were not aware of NASA’s plan, but they were enthusiastic and supportive. They will be in college when people are walking on the moon again.

I was kind of nervous talking to complete strangers about the moon. But they were very supportive. “Would you help me with my project?”, I said. “Sure.. what is it?” And they warned me that they did not know much about the moon. But they did know that 1969 was the first time that people walked on the moon.
