NASA is planning for humans to reside on the moon and views its recent Artemis I launch last week as a critical stepping stone to further that goal, Howard Hu, the program manager of the Orion spacecraft aboard the Artemis flight, explained."Certainly in this decade, we're going to have people living [on the moon]," he told the BBC.
"It's more than living — it's really about science," Hu added."We're going to be sending people down to the surface, and they're going to be living on that surface and doing science." Additionally, space tycoon Elon Musk has been overseeing the development of SpaceX's Starship rocket, which similarly touts super heavy-lift capabilities. Unlike SLS, Starship is designed to be fully reusable and is still in development.Orion made its spaceflight unmanned but is harboring equipment to test the toll of the trek on the human body. The launch on Wednesday followed two attempts in September and August that were called off due to system issues.

If they started offering jobs as the test subjects for the new moon colonies I would be on board in a second
We will see… 🔮
Maybe we can just send the democrats there!
Finally getting around to spending the money to put them there has been the only issue for 50 years. Good.
🤔
The Moon Bats already do.
I just wanna know when breakfast is served... and can I get a shot of Bailey’s with my coffee!
Someone needs to explain to me why we would want to do that. Why don't we send Elon Musk and then forget to take enough fuel for the round trip? Oops! Then we can dig him a cave on the Dark Side until he can discover a way to Tweet to Earth through the moon.
Riiight!
Who are we sending? I have A LIST!
No way
