Our guests, Douglas Messier, details the upcoming Artemis 2 mission which will be the first crewed flight to the moon since 1972 plus as it swings around the moon, the orbit it uses will take it further from Earth than any other crewed spaceflight ever. . The 10-day mission will test the Orion spacecraft’s life support and technical systems, space suits, comms and much more. It is important to note that there is an international competition for a Permanent Base on the Moon by either the US or China. NASA plans to establish a permanent lunar base by 2036 but beating China for humans on the Moon as we plan on a landing in 2028.
