Wow, only three yrs between launches. The fact that is was scheduled for 2 yrs after Artemis 1 is disturbing enough. NASA delays its first crewed Artemis mission until September 2025 (yahoo.com) I hope Musk Starship is in lunar orbit when Artemis 2 gets there.
Given the complexity and number of 'moving parts' of the whole thing, I would expect an 'added delay announcement' on a yearly basis. .
