Artemis 1 launch delays caused by ‘lesbians on the moon’ says Ben Shapiro
Ben Shapiro has claimed that Nasa is too occupied trying to hire lesbians to successfully launch their Artemis 1 moon exploration mission.
Despite Nasa statements that the delays have been due to technical issues, the conservative political commentator claimed the space agency is instead focusing on getting “lesbians on the moon.”

After two failed launch attempts, Artemis 1’s lift-off has been postponed until at least late September.
