NASA 2025: To the Moon, Mars, and Beyond

Preparing to orbit and do science on the Moon, investigating how solar wind interacts with Mars, and demonstrating quiet supersonic flight are just a FEW of the milestones we have planned for 2025.

What is said in the film

We need to celebrate this moment in human history. Because Artemis II is more than a mission to the Moon and back. It's more than a mission that has to happen before we send people to the surface of the Moon. It is the next step on the journey that gets humanity to Mars. When we hear those words we have touchdown.

It's our next step to understanding how the Moon formed, that next move to land humans. You've got to see the X-59 because it is one cool airplane. We continue modification to the aircraft that will become the X-66 When have a space mission into an unknown place, you find remarkable things that you did not anticipate. This mission is going to be game changing. Virtually everybody on this Earth is going to be affected by the science data that NISAR is going to return.

At any given moment, we have 140 active missions across the solar system. NASA science is literally everywhere. Science enables exploration and exploration, enables science.
