CNN was in Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Wednesday for the launch of Artemis II <\/a>when they decided to ask a young boy rocking a NASA hat with a camera strapped to it a few questions \u2014 and the kid certainly delivered.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do you want to be here? Why do you love space? Why do you love being a part of history?\u201d a reporter asked the boy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going back to the frickin\u2019 moon, that\u2019s why!\u201d the kid responded with mostly enthusiasm, with a dash of, \u201cDuh!\u201d <\/p>\n

NASA\u2019s Artemis II launch from the Kennedy Space Center on Wednesday marked humanity\u2019s first lunar<\/a> voyage since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. But it seems its crew \u2014 which consists of NASA\u2019s Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen \u2014 experienced a pretty crappy malfunction just hours into their mission. Apparently, the toilet broke, but it was fixed,<\/a> which seems like a much better outcome than the crew of Apollo 17, who had to poop in plastic bags, according to Space.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now get that kid to frickin\u2019 react to that gross tid-bit, CNN!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CNN was in Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Wednesday for the launch of Artemis II when they decided to…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":701262,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[994,916,159,783,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-701261","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-space","8":"tag-moon","9":"tag-nasa","10":"tag-science","11":"tag-space","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-unitedstates","14":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116339088250117444","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/701261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=701261"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/701261\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/701262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=701261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=701261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=701261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
