As part of this mission, called Artemis II, NASA will send four astronauts for a ten -day trip around the month. With this flight, the agency tries to test systems for future landing and eventually establish a long -term presence on the surface of the moon.
According to Acting NASA Deputy Administrator Lakish Hawkins, this mission is a key stage in the development of space development.
“Together we have the opportunity to watch the historical event from the first rows … The launch window can be opened on February 5th, but we want to emphasize that security is our priority,” said Hawkins.
The leader of launching Artemis Charlie Blackwell-Thopson explained that the missile system that should send astronauts to the moon, Space Launch System (SLS), has already been “practically collected and ready for work”. All that remains to finish the work on the Orion capsule, which will be attached to SLS, as well as finish ground tests.
Within the Mission of Artemis II, astronauts Rid Weizman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch of NASA, as well as Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency, will make a ten -day trip. They will not be planted on the moon, but will become the first crew to fly out of the low Earth’s orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. Also, this crew will go into space further than anyone in history.
“They will fly by at least 5,000 nautical miles (9200 km) past a month, which is much further than during previous missions,” says Jeff Markov, the chief flight leader of Artemis II.
The crew, among other things, will take part in an experiment, where it will be monitored as space affects their bodies. Scientists will also grow specimens of astronauts, which are called organoids, both before and after their journey, to compare them later and see the effects of cosmos.
