The Artemis Program, which began with an un-crewed rocket launch, will eventually set the stage for what NASA hopes is a long-term presence on the moon.
To understand why we're going back for the first time since 1972, we need to remember why we went there in the first place.
Now, more than five decades later, NASA says its current Artemis Program is about exploration, not politics. The agency says the mission is three-fold: scientific discovery, economic opportunities and inspiration for a new generation. But the agency stresses the moon is really a solar system steppingstone.
Some NASA critics argue the agency is already being outpaced by private space companies building rockets that are better and cheaper.
