NASA is preparing for the Artemis II mission, scheduled for February 2026, which will mark humanity's return to lunar orbit after 50 years with a crewed flight around the Moon. This mission, featuring four astronauts, will test critical systems such as communications and life support, while also measuring space radiation. Following Artemis II, Artemis III is planned for mid-2027, aiming to achieve a crewed landing at the Moon's south pole.
