The NASA Artemis 2.0 Smartwatch Runs Python And Lets Kids Code Their Own Wearable - Yanko Design
"NASA's Artemis II lifted off from Kennedy Space Center on April 1, 2026, carrying four astronauts on humanity's first crewed lunar mission in over 50 years. Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Canada's Jeremy Hansen are currently aboard the Orion spacecraft, preparing for a lunar flyby that will take them farther from Earth than any humans have traveled since Apollo 13."
"The CircuitMess Artemis Watch 2.0 is a $129 programmable smartwatch, fully assembled and ready to use out of the box, inspired by the very mission currently making headlines. The hardware inside includes a dual-core ESP32 microcontroller, a full-color LCD screen, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a compass, and a temperature sensor."
"Most smartwatches aimed at kids treat programming as something that happens elsewhere, if it happens at all. The Artemis Watch 2.0 flips that entire model. CircuitMess ships it fully functional, but every layer of the software is accessible and modifiable."
