NASA ready to establish permanent base on the Moon

NASA has launched an ambitious new phase of building a vast base on the Moon, just a few months after the historic flight of the Artemis II mission.

The US space agency announced on Tuesday, May 26, that it has awarded hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts to four American companies to develop modules and drones to be used on the lunar surface.

Under the plan, Jeff Bezos' company Blue Origin will provide two lunar landing vehicles that will transport moon buggies to the lunar surface, near the south pole. These lunar vehicles will be built by Astrolab and Lunar Outpost, while Firefly Aerospace will send the first drones to the moon, having previously achieved a successful landing there.

Drones will be used to help deploy and organize the base's initial infrastructure, according to 3D models presented at Cape Canaveral.

NASA aims for most of this equipment to reach the Moon before the Artemis III mission, which is planned for 2027, with a possible astronaut landing in 2028.

The long-term plan for the Artemis program envisages three phases:

– The first phase involves sending equipment and testing technologies to the surface

– The second phase (2029-early 2030s) will focus on building permanent infrastructure, including an energy grid

– The third phase aims to establish a sustainable human presence on the Moon during the 2030s, with specialized habitats

The director of the lunar base program, Carlos Garcia-Galan, said the goal is a permanent presence on the Moon: Then we will be able to say: we are here forever and we are not leaving!

He envisions the base spanning hundreds of square miles, with drones serving as boundary markers of the operational area.

Meanwhile, NASA administrator Jared Isaacman stressed that these measures aim to respect the activities of other countries on the Moon and promote international cooperation.

According to him, the ultimate goal of this program is to develop a lunar economy, conduct scientific research, and prepare for future missions to Mars.
