NASA wants to build a base on the Moon by the 2030s, How and why it plans to build up to a long‑term lunar presence
The next U.S. trip to the moon isn't about planting a flag. It's about learning how to live and work there. NASA has just reset its Artemis program, marking a clear strategic shift: Space exploration is moving away from a race to achieve milestones and toward a system built on repeated operations, a sustained presence and lunar infrastructure that could become part of the technology networks we rely on here on Earth.
