Focused on data collection and still without human crew, the NASA prepares the return to the Moon through the Artemis mission. The main purpose at this first moment is to capture information and especially to know how the new rocket, which took the name CG:SLS (Space Launch System) and also has a capsule called Orion. 653g2p
It is worth ing that this first mission, which is also scheduled to take place in 2024 and 2025 (Artemis II and Artemis III), does not yet mark the return of humanity to the Moon, but the next ones already have a forecast of humans landing on the natural satellite. from the earth. Check all the information right now.
What is the Artemis I Quest 4k3s1q
In July 1969, a small step for man but a big step for humanity was taken with NASA's Apollo 11 mission, which made the human race step on another celestial body besides Earth for the first time - in this case, the Moon.
Man reached the moon six more times after this landing, with the last being in 1972, on the Apollo 17 mission, and since then no human has set foot on the lunar surface again. But that is about to change and the first test will be done with Artemis l's mission. NASA, with its first unmanned launch scheduled for early September.
The Artemis l mission takes place 50 years after Apollo 17, with the launch being considered a true event, with live broadcast of the rocket's exit on platform 39B of the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida, USA via NASA's online channels.
the mighty rocket CG: SLS 1o3x18
The mission Artemis I will use the rocket CG:SLS (Space Launch System), seen in the space world as the most powerful transport of its kind ever created. loading the capsule Orion, it has a very different objective from rockets Saturn, used during the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 1970s: it was created with the aim of transporting people, resources and structures that can be used to maintain a permanent presence of humanity on the Moon.
This objective and varied use of SLS is achieved through six rocket configurations, which can be adapted to the objective of each mission: whether it is just taking the Orion capsule to the Moon, or in the future taking resources to the established base.
The first flight attempt, which was scheduled for August 29, 2022, ended up going wrong due to a problem in one of the four engines scheduled to carry three mannequins and a plush Snoopy dog.
We won't launch until everything is right. They have a problem with the engine gases; it's just illustrative that this is a very complicated machine with a very complicated system and all these things need to work. You don't light the candle until you're ready to go.

Second attempt to launch Artemis l 1y4v3t
Now, on the 02nd of September, the NASA will try to get the rocket and capsule on the way to the Moon. But as the mission is being carried out just to carry out tests, there is no rush to make it work and of course, it is still an opportunity to test the security methods. The mannequins were named by NASA as Commander Moonkin Campos, Helga and Zohar. The last attempt, in the event of one more failure, is scheduled to take place on September 05, 2022.
The purpose is to allow these dolls to carry out the measurement of radiation from deep space so that, in the future, human crew will know all the dangers and can avoid it. A new armor test in special suits will also be tested with the voyage of Artemis I.
In a perfect scenario, in which the four engines and other components work correctly, the Artemis l Orion capsule will travel for 42 days to the Moon and then make a circuit of our natural satellite before returning to Earth until it crashes. in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego.
A biology experiment will also be carried out in the first part of the Artemis project: the NASA put seeds, algae, fungi and other yeasts to find out how this type of life reacts in space and if, one day, we could live outside our current planet. Photo and video cameras will record the commander – who is actually a mannequin – so that we can follow the trip closely.
So when will man return to the moon? 487043
The expectation of NASA is that humanity will step back on lunar soil sometime in 2025. As seen in utopias like For All Mankind, it is necessary to run a series of tests for astronauts to land safely on the Moon. The project Artemis has precisely this purpose, but it is important to that in 2022, we are only in the first stage.
A Artemis I represents a test of the ship's durability and safety. If it also fails the deadline, the mission will be delayed by a month, compromising the aforementioned safety tests, which in itself could put the entire schedule, through 2025, at risk. O showmetech has already developed a complete video about the reasons humanity has not returned to the Moon since 1972 and you can check it out below:

Gateway: the first moon base 3u5e4a
Scheduled to be installed after 2034, the NASA is focused on building a moon base in partnership with private companies and other special agencies. The main purpose is to allow future missions to have a and three scientific instruments have already been defined by the US space agency:
- Heliophysics Environmental and Radiation Measurement Experiment Suite (HERMES): led by Goddard Space Flight Center da NASA, monitoring of critical solar and low energy particles will be carried out for scientific investigations of the Sun and the development of more resistant materials. This also the solar winds.
- European Radiation Sensors Array (ERSA): this study to monitor radiations at “higher energies” according to the NASA.
- Internal Dosimeter Array (IDA): astronauts will fly inside the HALO (Housing and Logistics Outpost), which serves as a small preview of the first lunar base and at this time, a study of the effects of protection against radiation will be carried out.
A NASA wants to improve radiation physics models to know how to prevent astronauts from suffering cancer, cardiovascular problems and even central nervous system attacks. The IDA will also serve as a way of measuring radiation risk on exploration missions. The first information is that the IDA will be built by European Space Agency (ESA) and JAXA (Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency) will help the project with scientific instruments.
The forecast is that the PPE and HALO integrated spacecraft will not be launched before November 2024, for only then the construction of the Lunar Gateway be started. When everything is finalized, humanity will have access to a “livable platform of mobility” for trips of up to 45 days.
When should humanity land on Mars? 33182u
It is still necessary to carry out many studies for the first trips to the red planet to actually happen. THE NASA estimates that this will not happen before the XNUMXs. 2030. Elon Musk announced in late 2021 that he has a desire to take humans to Mars within 10 years, a date in line with the predictions of the US space agency.
Although the Moon be the focal point in this first moment, the project Artemis it also involves explorations to Mars. According to NASA, Artemis intends to establish a fixed base of humanity in the Moon, in order to facilitate future expeditions to the red planet.
We're going to Mars and we're going back to the Moon to work and live and survive. We will learn how to use resources on Lua to build things in the future.

The high investments can also be an obstacle for the man to step for the first time in Mars. This is because only the program Artemis is expected to cost the US government around US$93 billion by 470. Recently, a A ten-year study carried out by the ESA pointed to the existence of thousands of water points on the red planet, which gave more hope that one day we can live outside of Earth. These are questions that will be answered over time.
