NASA’s Artemis mission to take humans back to the Moon has been delayed until 2025


NASA plans to land people on the Moon in 2026.

NASA has pushed back its timeline for its Artemis missions that would send human beings to the Moon, including landing on the south pole. NASA said that it is pushing the missions back primarily to make sure its crew is safe, as the agency needs to resolve a battery issue and work on circuitry related to environmental systems, including air ventilation. Artemis I launched in 2022, sending NASA’s Orion capsule to orbit and giving the agency data that led to its decision to push these missions back.
