Ars Technica interviews NASA's Artemis program manager Jeremy Parsons about the status of the SLS rocket, Orion spacecraft, and lunar landers for the Artemis III mission, scheduled for no earlier than summer 2027.
NASA's Artemis II crew, the fastest humans alive, earned a Mach 39 patch after reaching 24,664 mph on their lunar flyby.
NASA announces a public event on June 9 to meet the astronauts of Artemis III, which will test docking capabilities with commercial landers in low Earth orbit as a step toward crewed lunar landings.
Kore.ai launched Artemis, a platform that uses AI to autonomously write, govern, and optimize AI agents from plain-language objectives, drastically reducing the need for manual engineering. The system validates agents pre-deployment and continuously improves them, potentially shrinking the role of human engineers to mere approvers.
The failure of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket has catastrophic consequences for NASA's Artemis program, delaying lunar lander development and increasing reliance on SpaceX's Starship.
NASA announced three Moon Base missions launching this year to prepare for a permanent lunar base and crewed Artemis landing in 2028, along with contracts for new rovers and drone missions.
NASA is advancing plans for a Moon Base, including developing the MoonFall drone program to scout the lunar surface and establish a perimeter using drones, with support from Firefly Aerospace.
NASA is undergoing a major reorganization to reduce bureaucracy, consolidate mission directorates from six to four, and focus on key priorities like Artemis, Moon Base, and nuclear power, with no job losses or center closures.
A POV tweet from NASA Artemis describes the Orion spacecraft's crew module separating from the service module before reentering Earth's atmosphere at the end of Artemis II.
Astronaut Christina Koch discusses her journey from Antarctic research to record-breaking space missions and the historic Artemis II lunar flyby, emphasizing exploration, perspective, and inspiring the next generation.
