concept for a human mission to the
Red Planet.
For such a mission, NASA envisions a
four-person crew traveling to the
Gateway and living aboard the outpost
for a multi-month stay to simulate the
outbound trip to Mars. Later, two
crewmembers would travel to the lunar
surface and explore with the habitable
mobility platform, while the remaining
two astronauts stay aboard Gateway. The
four crewmembers will later reunite
aboard the lunar outpost for another
multi-month stay, simulating the return
trip to Earth. This mission would be the
longest-duration human deep space mission
in history and would be the first
operational test of the readiness of our
deep-space systems.

precision by combining many different
navigation methods into a seamless
architecture. LunaNet will provide missions
with access to key measurements
for precision navigation in lunar space.
A Long-Term Stay
Beginning with Artemis
III, NASA
intends to launch crewed missions about
once per year, with initial missions
focused on establishing surface capabilities
and building the Gateway in orbit
around the Moon.
For long-term operations, the Gate -
way will provide a staging point for
human and robotic lunar missions. The
orbiting outpost will support longer
expeditions on the Moon and potentially
multiple trips to the surface during a
single Artemis mission. The Gateway-tosurface
operational system allows the
crew to remain in orbit and deploy to
the surface.
At the lunar South Pole, NASA and its
partners will develop an Artemis Base
Camp to support longer expeditions on
the lunar surface. Planned Base Camp
elements include a lunar terrain vehicle
(LTV, or unpressurized rover), a habitable
mobility platform (pressurized
rover), a lunar foundation habitation
module, power systems, and in-situ
resource utilization systems.
Looking to Mars
While the goal of Apollo was to land
the first humans on the Moon, the
Artemis program will use the Moon as a

into the solar system, beginning with

the lunar surface would test NASA's
According to NASA, " The U.S. is still
the only nation to have successfully landed
humans on the Moon and spacecraft
on the surface of Mars. As other nations
increasingly move out into space, Amer -
ican leadership is now called for to lead
the next phase of humanity's quest to
open up the future to endless discovery
and growth. "
