Rushing this mission forward by two months raises serious safety concerns, given the previous heat shield problems and multiple delays. The pressure to beat China to the Moon shouldn't compromise astronaut safety or mission success. Ultimately, a more cautious approach better serves long-term exploration goals.
There's a 50% chance that the next human being will walk on the Moon by April 10, 2029, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
