NASA&#8217;s Artemis program aims to surpass the heights achieved with the Apollo missions to the lunar surface in the 1960s and 1970s.<\/p>\n<h3>Artemis I: A Successful Test Mission<\/h3>\n<p>Artemis I, an unmanned test mission to the moon, witnessed the Orion spacecraft orbit and conduct tests during its journey from Earth to the moon. Despite facing months of delays due to various challenges, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mayor-signs-order-to-demolish-remainder-of-building-in-fla-condo-collapse\/\" title=\"Mayor signs order to demolish remainder of building in Fla. condo collapse\">including weather<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/space-race-where-the-us-stands-on-sending-people-back-to-the-moon\/\" title=\"US position on returning to the moon in the space race.\">rocket heating issues<\/a>, the mission finally launched on Nov. 16, 2022, and splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on Dec. 11, 2022.<\/p>\n<h3>Artemis II: The First Manned Mission in Half a Century<\/h3>\n<p>Artemis II, scheduled for 2024, will be the first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bezos-contract-fight-may-delay-american-return-to-moon\/\" title=\"Bezos Contract Fight May Delay American Return to Moon\">manned mission<\/a> around the moon in 50 years. Although no astronaut is planned to land on the lunar surface, the 10-day mission will see astronauts testing the capabilities of the Orion spacecraft as they orbit the moon. The mission aims to &#8220;validate the capabilities and techniques needed for humans to live and work in deep space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Crew of Artemis II<\/h3>\n<p>NASA unveiled the crew for Artemis II in April, which includes NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, as well as Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson expressed his pride in the crew, stating, &#8220;This is their crew, this is our crew, this is humanity&#8217;s crew.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Future Lunar Landings: Artemis III, IV, and V<\/h3>\n<p>The next planned mission to land on the moon&#8217;s surface is Artemis III, scheduled for 2025. This mission is the first in a series of lunar landings planned by NASA, including Artemis IV and V in 2028 and 2029, respectively. SpaceX is responsible for creating the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bipartisan-support-for-bill-challenging-chinas-tech-clout\/\" title=\"Bipartisan Support for Bill Challenging China's Tech Clout\">human landing system<\/a> for Artemis III and IV, while Blue Origin has been contracted for Artemis V.

NASA plans to utilize the techniques learned through the Artemis missions on the moon for future Mars missions. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson emphasized the importance of partnerships and investments in paving the way for the first astronauts to reach Mars.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US hasn&#8217;t landed on the moon since 1972, but that may change soon.
