NASA is set to embark on its next lunar journey with the Artemis II mission, scheduled to launch in April. The crew of four will embark on a 10-day trip around the moon and back, marking an important step towards establishing a sustained human presence in space.
According to Reid Weissman, mission commander, “Artemis is the right program at the right time to make history.” This mission will serve as a flight test for NASA’s space launch system and Orion spacecraft. If successful, the Artemis III mission will follow, with humans landing on the moon for the first time since 1972.
