Artemis II, hope, chaos, Nutella, and the return of four very exhilarated astronauts🧁 This week, Ruha and Bekah recount the emotional rollercoaster of the Artemis II mission — from Houston send‑offs to moon‑side tears to the triumphant return home. Ruha recounts her whirlwind two weeks of space‑nerding and being recognized by NASA interns (again). Bekah brings the relatable energy of someone who meant to watch the launch but rolled her ankle and got pulled into Scrubs instead. Together, they unpack astronaut camaraderie, viral memes, the surreal beauty of lunar orbit, and why watching four competent humans do something hard felt like collective therapy. Also: Nutella in zero‑G, the Carroll Crater, and the Sally Ride question — would 100 tampons be enough for space? What we talk about Ruha’s Houston trip: Space Center visits, book signings, and accidentally ending up at an astronaut send‑off The very small crowd of civilians who showed up (and the NASA employees who absolutely did) The “Who’s Reid?” moment that will haunt Ruha forever The Artemis II launch: Bekah vs. Scrubs Viral astronaut content: salutes, socks, Nutella, and the golden‑hour braid admired ‘round the world The Welcome Home parade at Johnson Space Center and putting out a 3‑million‑view video for the history books Earthjoy, Moonjoy, and the collective sigh of relief when the capsule splashed down safely What in Spot's Playground? Bekah: The Bible Is Funny card game - chaotic scripture pairings, out‑of‑context verses, and the perfect Galentine’s‑night energy Ruha: Miniature kits from Anavrin — thick, high‑quality pieces, no painting required, and the perfect pre‑Japan‑trip cozy craft For Midnight Cheesecake Ruha: Girl Scout Lemonades — buttery, bright, melt‑in‑your‑mouth perfection Bekah: A vintage‑mold rainbow Jell‑O masterpiece made by Devon (friend of the pod, hype girl, legend) Final Thoughts This episode is pure joy — moon joy, earth joy, and the joy of watching your besties process a historic moment in real time. If you needed hope, wonder, or just a reminder that humans can still do beautiful things together… this one’s for you.
