Artemis 2 launch reaction is the kind of thing that surprises you. Lindsay Broadhead did not expect what she felt watching it. Jamie Ellerton remembered a vague imprecise memory from the late nineties and a Canadian connection that may or may not have been real. Both agreed that Canada having someone on a rocket heading toward the moon is worth feeling something about.

Who Would You Leave on the Moon?

The capsule is the size of a minivan. You are in it for 10 days. The question of who to take with you, and who to leave behind, produced the most honest Smart Speakers moment in recent memory. Lindsay Broadhead's list includes her ex. And one other person. The plan for both is one way. Jamie Ellerton would take an iPad with a hundred books and stay up there himself. The deeper conversation underneath it is about what Artemis actually means, why the emotions felt raw, and why the inspiration of people like Jeremy Hansen matters even to people who never had any illusions about going to space themselves.

**Tonight at Nine, Whatever That Means**

Trump is addressing the nation at nine Eastern and Jamie Ellerton says he genuinely does not know what to expect because so much of what comes out is hollow bluster and telling the difference is the hard part. Lindsay Broadhead expects him to signal something about Iran and spread the blame in every direction but his own. The NDP just chose Abby Lewis in Winnipeg and provincial parties are already distancing themselves from the federal brand.
