NASA is adamant that a safe return to the moon is essential if mankind is to explore deeper into the solar system. Even though the momentous moon landing happened decades ago, the moon may not have the same appeal as Mars, but NASA still sees it as a necessary first step toward further space research. Renowned British space scientist Dame Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock told UNILAD why it is so important to go back to the moon.
Dr. Maggie Even Explores NASA’s Artemis Project Calling It The First Step Of Exploration
She explored the specifics of NASA’s Artemis project, which has grand ambitions for building a lunar outpost. This station serves as a starting point for human exploration of the solar system as well as a research outpost.
According to Aderin-Pocock, “The Artemis project includes bringing humans back to the moon for the first time in fifty years.” However, the moon will be used as a staging post in this plan.” This remark raises a lot of questions since it suggests that the moon may play a part in future space missions. The Artemis project, according to NASA, will further our knowledge of how people may live successfully in space, far from Earth. Aderin-Pocock expounded, saying, “The moon has less gravity because it is smaller than planet Earth.”
