Last month, I asked if there had been any progress in the return to the moon.

Apparently there has been some progress - more names have been chosen! This time it’s for the ship: Orion (Astronaut lets new moonship name slip)

“We’ve been calling it the crew exploration vehicle for several years, but today it has a name — Orion,” Williams said, taping a message in advance for the space agency that was transmitted accidentally over space-to-ground radio.

UPDATE: It seems that the purpose of the International Space Station has also become more clear. It’s now to be the backdrop for a commercial for a golf club.
