The had two couple of thrusters fore and aft the module and some modules had their own thrusters (though one wonders where they kept the fuel). There are vernier quads on the pads to provide for pitch/roll/yaw. There are even blueprints online. Loserboy nerds can't even research nerdy stuff while we jocks have the thing down since forever. Consider yourself beaten up.

Don't let the door slam your fat arse on the way out. It makes a squishy, irritating noise and it causes the rest of abhuman you to fart, which makes the air unbreathable.

I'd have preferred the mission to include a LOI and TEI as in Apollo 8, but testing the hardware with people on board even on a purely circumlunar trajectory accomplished a test of the craft and equipment in a safe way while at the same time bringing public attention to the program. Apollo 8 ran a lot of risks that today would be difficult to justify. So far, I have followed the mission a bit at a distance - not seen anything live - but I like what I see. As for the comparisons with Apollo 13, Jim Lovell recorded a message for the Artemis II crew before his passing and he was obviously happy to have more astronauts following in his footsteps. I'd say with 500% accuracy that his feelings in the matter beat any opinion anyone else could have about it, because he was a Space Jock and you are not.
