What's next? Rename the Artemis program because we can't be flying to the moon under some lady name? Probably change it to Ares, god of war and courage. That's a very manly man name, just as the good lords Jesus and Trump intended.

Change it to Donald, god of bone spurs and bigotry.

I'm imagining those early rocket failures where they just fall over and burst into flames.

Wasn't Ares actually the name for a previous attempt at return to the moon?
