Astronaut safety and delays were top concerns in a new audit of NASA’s plans to use either SpaceX’s Starship or Blue Origin’s Blue Moon lunar landers on future Artemis missions,

NASA has moved to replace the long-planned Exploration Upper Stage for its Space Launch System rocket with United Launch Alliance’s Vulcan Centaur 5 upper stage, a shift that could reshape the Artemis lunar program’s trajectory for years to come.

NASA is in the process off rolling its towering Artemis 2 moon rocket back to its hangar after more than a month at Launch Complex-39B at the Kennedy Space Center due to a helium system issue. The Artemis 2 moon rocket consists of NASA's second Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft,

The tool will let you track NASA's modern lunar program during its 10-day flight around the moon and back again.

NASA outlined a new plan for its Artemis lunar program that includes an extra mission before a moon landing as early as 2028.

NASA revealed the latest problem just one day after targeting March 6 for Artemis II, humanity’s first flight to the moon in more than half a century. Overnight, the flow of helium to the rocket’s upper stage was interrupted, officials said. Solid helium flow is essential for purging the engines and pressurizing the fuel tanks.

Recent NASA budget uncertainties could make one space agency endeavor up for grabs — defending Earth from incoming space rocks. That effort, undertaken by NASA for many years, could be given to the U.S. Space Force, which has a much bigger new budget.

NASA is spearheading several initiatives focused on how technology could be harnessed to improve MRO and prepare the sector for next-generation aviation, such as advanced air mobility. According to Steven Holz,
