The landing should take place at the end of 2025 or in 2026. It will be followed by the Artemis 4 and Artemis 5 missions in 2028 and 2029, respectively. These missions will also take astronauts to the Moon.

At a regular meeting of the National Space Council, US Vice President Kamala Harris announced that NASA would take the first non-American to the Moon. This will happen in the fairly foreseeable future, writes Space.

“An astronaut from another country in the world will be delivered to the surface of the Moon by the end of the 2020s. The main goal of the Artemis lunar program is to establish a permanent human presence on the Moon by the end of this decade. That is, in relatively near future, the first base should be built on Earth’s satellite “, and a small space station called Gateway should appear in orbit around the moon. As part of its lunar program, NASA is collaborating with the European Space Agency (ESA), the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA),” he said.

However, when exactly this will happen more precisely and which country the astronaut will represent, Harris did not say.

Let’s recall that on May 31, the Crew Dragon spacecraft returned space tourists to Earth after spending ten days on the International Space Station.
