A Moon Landing In 2024
As part of NASA’s Artemis programme, SpaceX and NASA are collaborating in order to achieve the shared objective of placing humans on the moon by 2024. After the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, this mission will mark the return of humans to the lunar surface. NASA and SpaceX want to create a sustained presence on the Moon, conduct scientific research, and develop new technologies as part of the Artemis programme. Plus, with the ultimate objective of constructing a lunar base for future trips to Mars. In order to do this, NASA is creating the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, and SpaceX is creating the Starship lunar lander. Astronauts will be able to go from the lunar orbit to the Moon’s surface and back again using the lunar lander. In addition to working with SpaceX to create the lunar lander, NASA has already begun testing the technologies needed for the trip, including the SLS rocket and Orion ship. The Artemis programme marks a significant advance exploration in space, and the productive partnership between NASA and SpaceX may open the door for more lunar and extraterrestrial missions in the future.
The reason for witch I find this subject interesting is because we haven’t gone to the moon for the last semicentennial. And not only we are back to the Moon, but we are constructing a lunar base.
