In honor of Artemis 1's successful launch this new Apollo to Artemis video came out. It features three speakers who had direct involvement with the Apollo-17 mission. Harrison H. "Jack" Schmitt was an astronaut on that mission. He is joined by Charles "Chip" Shearer and Clive Neal who have been analyzing Apollo samples.

This video is setting up expectations for Artemis. It's coming from the perspective that what we can do with samples has advanced considerably, thus you can taste the hunger these people have for new Artemis specimens.

Artemis-3 will be the first Artemis to collect samples. After Artemis-4 sample return will only increase in priority.
