Head of Orion lunar programme says Artemis 1 mission is ‘first step to long-term deep-space exploration’
Astronauts are on course to be living and working on the moon before the end of the decade, according to a leading Nasa official.
Howard Hu, head of the US agency’s Orion lunar spacecraft programme, said humans could be active on the moon for “durations” before 2030, with habitats to live in and rovers to support their work.
