The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) plans to land astronauts on the Moon by the end of 2025 or 2026. On Wednesday, April 19, it was said in statement NASA Director Bill Nelson.

“We expect Artemis 3 to launch a year after Artemis 2, which could be as late as 2025, could be 2026,” Nelson said.

He said that this time the crew will be sent into a close orbit to the Moon, where it will land with the SpaceX lander. After that, two crew members will go to a natural satellite of Earth and conduct a six-day mission there.

Note that NASA hopes to launch a similar mission in 2025.

The main objective of the Artemis program, published in September 2020, is called the landing of astronauts on the surface of the moon, the construction of a near-lunar station and the preparation of conditions for the possible colonization of the Moon in the future.

Recall that on November 21, 2022, the Orion spacecraft of the Artemis 1 mission approached the moon as close as possible.
