NASA’s Artemis II mission is officially delayed to March 2026. The culprit? A familiar "ghost" in the machine: a persistent liquid hydrogen leak that halted the final countdown at T-minus 5 minutes.

In this episode, Albany Adams and Grace Shelly decode the "Hydrogen Curse." We investigate why the smallest molecule in the universe remains the biggest obstacle for the world’s most powerful rocket. From legacy plumbing issues to modern AI diagnostics, we explore what it will actually take to break the curse and get humans back to the Moon.
