Space watchers enthralled by the live stream from NASA’s Artemis II Orion spacecraft have noticed that even astronauts can have trouble with Microsoft software. BlueSkyer Niki Grayson clipped an amusing segment of the live stream, where a puzzled astronaut asks for support from Mission Control because they “have two Microsoft Outlooks, and neither one of those are working.”

Grayson was agog at NASA inflicting Outlook on astronauts. “I’m so sorry we’ve sent these souls to the moon and they’re using Outlook?” they quipped.

I’m just flabbergasted that people at nasa put their signatures on paperwork where MS is involved in any of their systems. I thought intelligent people worked there.
