Artemis II Ignites a New Era of Human Spaceflight

 

People photograph NASA's Artemis II lunar flyby mission, with the next-generation moon rocket, the Space Launch System rocket and the Orion crew capsule, ahead of the launch of the Artemis II mission at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.


NASA is entering a historic moment as it prepares to launch Artemis II, the first crewed lunar mission in more than 50 years. The mission marks a major step toward returning humans to the Moon and eventually pushing onward to Mars.

The Crew Leading the Mission

Why Artemis II Matters

This mission is a crucial stepping stone toward NASA’s long‑term lunar ambitions. It follows the uncrewed Artemis I flight of 2022 and will pave the way for Artemis III and IV, which aim to land astronauts on the Moon’s surface—including the lunar south pole—later this decade.
