next couple of weeks. today is the roll-out of the artemis 1 next couple of weeks. today is the roll-out of the artemis 1 mission, l roll out of the artemis 1 mission, so you ve got the sls rocket, being rolled out with the orion crook capsule filled up in the next couple of weeks, it will be prepared for launch, so making sure that the systems are working on filling up with fuel. on the 29th of august, that s the current plan, which is weather dependent, the rocket will launch, and it will be the maiden voyage for the rocket, so that will be exciting for them and then, artemis i will begin getting that crude capsule to the moon, which will take nine days or so, and then it was spent about two weeks in a white moon orbits, and the capsule will go further than any crew capsule has gone before, about 40,000 miles beyond the moon, so really far, and then it will be about two and a half weeks to get back to earth, and it will crash [and in the pacific ocean, so we are land in the pacific
decisions that were made in this raid, did they incorporate any lessons learned from the civilian casualty report done after the august 29th strike? thank you. kind of addressed that second question before. when louie asked it. we always try to avoid civilian harm. this operation was of a completely different character than the air strike that happened on the 29th of august. but in general, we always try to learn from previous missions, from previous operations. these are two completely different operations. and the desire to avoid civilian harm was baked in months ago into this particular plan. in fact, the decision itself to conduct a raid using special operations forces speaks volumes of the degree to which the president was trying to avoid

minute-by-minute ticktock, but that characterization as i understand it is accurate. e, it wasn t long after they isolated the site and began a callout that there was a large explosion on the third floor, which was abdullah killing himself and the family members that were with him on the third floor and putting at significant risk everybody else in that building. the kabul air drone strike and the repercussions that have happened, since then we saw the secretary issue his guidance recently. did that factor in at all into the notion that we re going to go in with ground troops in a raid as opposed to a drone strike? what factored into that decision, louie, was our long-standing practice of trying to minimize civilian harm, not what happened on the 29th of
