@varx @lattera yeah this. If this was one of their contractors like SpaceX, they wouldn't have approved the launch.
But since Artemis is so badly managed and they've wasted billions on it, they're willing to take this risk even while admitting their test chambers can't fully test their heat shielding.
I hope the worst doesn't happen...
