Artemis

Artemis - Artemis should just be the beginning of a human presence on the Moon, that should see some sort of permanent fixture in the form of an outpost that’s not necessarily even permanently occupied but which can be accessed from a lunar-orbiting gateway. Whether that turns out to be the ‘gateway’ that’s been touted for the last decade by both NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA), or something that’s less ambitious remains to be seen. But such a gateway could serve as both a refuge and staging facility for human missions to and from the surface.
