On July 20, 1969, humans first set foot on the moon. Almost 55 years have passed since then. The United States has started preparations to send humans to the moon again. If all goes well, humans will go to the moon again in 2027. Of course, China is also preparing to send humans to the moon by 2030. This article is about how those preparations are going.The moon has been attracting humans for hundreds of years. It has been almost 55 years since humans first set foot there.

Now scientists have started preparations to conquer the moon again. This has started a competition between the United States, China and other countries.The US space research agency NASA wants to be the first to send a mission to the moon. The United States plans to conduct an expedition to the moon with astronauts next February. Last September, NASA's Deputy Administrator Lakeisha Hawkins gave this information at a press conference.According to NASA, a mission named 'Artemis 2' will be conducted to the moon. The experience gained from this mission will be used in the 'Artemis 3' mission scheduled for landing on the moon. This mission will be conducted in 2027. It is expected that humans will set foot on the moon again after more than 57 years through this third Artemis mission of NASA.According to NASA official Hawkins, the first spacecraft launch opportunity in NASA's Artemis 2 mission may come on February 5, 2026. Earlier, the planned launch date was in April 2026. However, the time has been brought forward slightly.The main purpose of this mission is to test some important systems of space travel, such as the astronaut's life support system. These experiences will be used in the Artemis 3 mission scheduled for landing on the moon in 2027.Hawkins said that NASA's Artemis program aims to ensure the continued presence of humans on the moon. As part of this, technologies developed in collaboration with private organizations and international partners, especially Europe,

will be tested, which can help the first astronauts reach their next destination, Mars.Artemis is the first US space program in five decades to send astronauts to the moon. This program has been taken from the Apollo program. The US has planned this mission in advance to beat China.China's goal is to send astronauts to the moon by 2030. The US is desperate to succeed in this regard before anyone else. In the meantime, China has announced plans to send astronauts to the moon before 2030. Beijing is moving very quickly with new rockets and various types of lunar landers.There is a big difference between the Artemis and Apollo programs. This is the first time the US is going on a lunar mission without cooperation with other international partners. Earlier, in 2022, the first Orion capsule was launched without astronauts as part of the Artemis 1 program as part of the lunar mission.Now the second mission is planned as a test flight in lunar orbit.

So many Orion capsules, SLS rockets and procedures necessary for future moon landings will be verified.What will Artemis 2 containThe Artemis 2 mission will last about 10 days and will see four astronauts travel more than 1.2 million miles. After orbiting the Earth twice, the four crew members in the Orion capsule will travel to the moon and orbit the moon once.The astronauts will observe the far side of the moon from the capsule's window. At this time, their closest distance from the moon will be about 4,350 miles (7,000 kilometers). NASA will capture the scenes the astronauts see during this journey in a time-lapse video.Time-lapse video is a video that shows time at a faster speed. It can show long-term events, such as hours or changes in the day, in a matter of minutes or seconds. For example, a glimpse of sunrise to sunset, rain or the hustle and bustle of a city.A total of three missions are being conducted as part of the Artemis program. The program aims to return humans to the moon and travel to Mars. The first phase of this program, Artemis 1, was launched on November 16, 2022. It was a test flight. There were no humans on that mission. Instead of humans, there were three puppets.
