With the Artemis program, NASA will land the first woman and next man on the Moon by 2024, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before. NASA will collaborate with commercial and international partners and establish sustainable exploration by the end of the decade. Then, using what was learned on and around the Moon to take the next giant leap - sending astronauts to Mars.
NASA has named the program "Artemis" in honor of Apollo's twin sister in Greek mythology, the goddess of the Moon. The name aligns well with a project goal of landing the first woman on the moon, while honoring the Apollo programs success in the 1960's.
