The timeline has been updated to give teams more time to overcome development, operational, and integration challenges.

NASA has delayed its Artemis program to land astronauts on the Moon to give them more time to prepare. NASA reported it.

Now the Artemis II mission, which was scheduled to launch in November 2024, has been postponed to September 2025. The Artemis III mission, where it planned to land the first astronauts near the South Pole of the Moon, is scheduled for September 2026.

As for the Artemis IV mission, which provides for the delivery of a residential module to the lunar orbital station Lunar Gateway, it is scheduled for September 2028.

“We are returning to the Moon like never before, and the safety of our astronauts is NASA’s top priority as we prepare for the upcoming Artemis missions. We have learned a lot since Artemis I, and the success of the early missions that it depends on our commercial and international partnerships that support the expansion of our capabilities and understanding of humanity’s place in the solar system,” said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson.

NASA tests aimed at testing components that ensure crew safety and mission success have identified problems that require additional time to resolve. Teams are troubleshooting the battery and solving problems with the circuitry components responsible for air ventilation and temperature control.

It was previously reported that at the next meeting of the National Space Council, US Vice President Kamala Harris said that NASA will bring the first non-American to the Moon.
