Remember the Artemis Program? It is still NASA's goal to take people to the moon--and to stay there with a continuing human presence. It's taking a long time, but there is news: the next mission in the program is coming up next month.
To refresh yourself about the goal, here's an inspiring re-post from 2021. As the video voiceover says, "None of this is simple, or easy!"
Artemis
Next year, 2022, will be the 50th anniversary since men were last on the moon. That's fifty years, achieved by people with 50-year-old technology. We can do it again, and that's the goal. Under the previous administration, NASA made plans to return with international and private partners and establish the first long-term presence.
Why do that? For the scientific discovery, the economic benefits, and the inspiration. "While maintaining American leadership in exploration, we will build a global alliance and explore deep space for the benefit of all."
