Artemis II is just the start. The next mission, Artemis III (planned for 2027), will try out docking with the Starship Lander in orbit, a big step toward landing humans on the Moon again.
This over $90 billion project isn't just NASA; it's a team effort with Canada, Europe, and Japan.
The goal? Use lunar ice for future, more ambitious space missions and do science we can't do from Earth, all while building a permanent outpost on the Moon.
