Join us for a comprehensive, research-driven exploration of NASA’s Artemis program—humanity’s bold return to the Moon and stepping-stone to Mars. In this feature you’ll discover:

The policy origins and Space Policy Directive 1 mandate that revived lunar exploration in 2017

Engineering deep dives into the Space Launch System’s 8.8 million-pound thrust and Orion’s Mach 32 re-entry shield

The modular Lunar Gateway station: power, propulsion, habitat design, and international contributions

Commercial Human Landing Systems from SpaceX and Blue Origin, and their strengths in payload and reusability

Detailed mission profiles for Artemis I through VI, including landing site selection near Shackleton Crater

Science objectives: water-ice drilling, regolith processing, and in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) flowcharts

Human factors: radiation shielding, microgravity countermeasures, and 3D-printed regolith habitats

Robotics and autonomy: VIPER rover, Lunar Terrain Vehicle, and Canadarm-3 on Gateway

International and commercial ecosystems under the Artemis Accords, plus spin-off benefits for Earth

Risk mitigation strategies for radiation storms and extreme lunar temperatures

Technology transfers paving the way for Mars missions, and STEM engagement through student challenges and VR tours
