The Artemis program, which Trump initiated during his first term, was quite clear that humans would be returning to the moon first, before going to Mars. However, SpaceX’s Elon Musk is now one ...
During the mission, an uncrewed Orion capsule spent 10 days in a distant retrograde 60,000 kilometers (37,000 mi) orbit around the Moon before returning to Earth. [10] Artemis II, the first crewed mission of the program, will launch four astronauts in 2025 [11] on a free-return flyby of the Moon at a distance of 8,900 kilometers (5,500 mi). [12 ...
