Reply to comment by SpaceInMyBrain in Macron lobbies Harris for French astronaut to join moon mission by Pure_Candidate_3831
In the article they weren’t saying 3 astronauts would ride in Orion, they were saying that ESA wants to send 3 astronauts total on the currently planned Artemis missions

Using current (or close to current) technologies, we could accelerate tiny probes to ~0.25c, meaning a 20 year mission to gather data from Proxima Centauri.
