NASA is preparing for its first crewed mission to the moon in more than 50 years. The Artemis II mission will not land on the lunar surface but is a critical step in testing deep space travel, and the crew reflects a more diverse, international generation of spaceflight

🇺🇸 NASA laid out the most aggressive Moon timeline in human history. Artemis II astronauts are back on Earth. Artemis III tests the lunar landers in 2027. And by 2028, Artemis IV begins construction of the first Moon Base. Two years between landing on the Moon and building on it. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman

Developed at NASA Langley, SCALPSS, or Stereo Cameras for Lunar Plume-Surface Studies, will fly on four commercial lunar landers in 2028 as part of NASA’s Moon Base Program. The instrument helps researchers understand crater formation and the characteristics of ejected materials during landings—critical insight as larger landers touch down closer together. Last year, SCALPSS captured this first‑of‑its‑kind imagery during Firefly’s Blue Ghost Mission 1. Listen as Moon Base Program Manager Carlos García-Galán talked about the importance of SCALPSS during the lander announcement on June 30. Learn more about NASA's Moon Base Program:

🇺🇸NASA is now committed to a permanent Moon base and will never again abandon the lunar surface. In a major rethink of the Artemis program, Jared has laid out a concrete three-phase plan: up to 15 robotic landers will first scout landing sites, followed by regular crewed visits every six months to build habitats for long-duration stays. The goal is sustained human presence on the Moon, not just flags and footprints. Source: The Economist
