Can't wait for a 2026 manned moon mission. Get to watch a live moon landing like my grandparents generation!

  No one is landing on the moon in 2026. SpaceX is two years behind schedule building the lander, and there's not enough room in the calendar to develop and then operationalize the necessary refueling technology. The earliest feasible landing date is probably in 2028.

    > is two years behind schedule building the ladder I initially read it as that, and didn't even blink. Elon's promises are so ridiculous and inept that being two years behind on building a ladder seems entirely plausible.
