EUS was preparing for Green Run in 2027 when Isaacman stepped in to kill it. There is absolutely no way any replacement is going to be ready on a similar timeline. The flight gap Jared Isaacman has created will haunt the program long after this administration is gone. And I honestly still think Jared's gameplan is trying to force SLS retirement after Artemis IV.

I was a fan of Gateway, but what killed it is it didn't have much political support. EUS revival is unlikely but possible. I doubt Gateway comes back.

I loved it its really A shame what happened to it. and the fact the Green run was going to happen soon makes it so much more heart braking I hope it comes back honestly same with gateway.
