NASA's Artemis program prepares return to the Moon

Description

NASA prepares to send astronauts back to the Moon as part of the Artemis program, with the goal of eventually sending humans to Mars in the long term. The first spaceflight in this endeavor, Artemis-1, is expected to lift off without a crew on August 29 to fly in orbit around the Moon and back to Earth. But astronauts are already training at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston for subsequent lunar missions. "All of us should want to be on the next thing smoking," says NASA astronaut Victor Glover.

  • Toyota's Lunar Cruiser - from Earth to the Moon and back

    The Artemis program marks the first step in the new era of human exploration. Together with commercial and international partners like JAXA, NASA hopes to establish a sustainable presence on the Moon to launch missions to Mars. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and Toyota are also contributing to the programme. MHI will do so through the development of the LUPEX – acronym in English for the Lunar Polar Expedition – and Toyota through the joint development of a manned lunar rover with JAXA. With this "Lunar Cruiser", Toyota hopes to apply the honed technologies used in the extreme conditions of the Moon on Earth.
