For the sake of the astronauts onboard Artemis, I hope they make it home safe. Nonetheless, pretty disgusted to see NASA effectively playing God with human lives at stake.

It’s probable that astronauts on Artemis II know a lot more about the situation than we do — probably(?) even having read the Camarda document. Is NASA really “playing God” at that point or are adults making decisions based on their personal risk tolerances?

It’s not like they’re handcuffing convicts to the spacecraft because all the free people declined to go up.

Good point. Guess it depends on how privy the four astronauts are to the Camarda document, etc.
