Before the decade is out, as part of the Artemis Program, NASA plans to send astronauts to the Moon for the first time since the Apollo Era. To realize this goal, they have contracted with commercial space industries to develop all the necessary components. This includes the Space Launch System (SLS) and the Orion spacecraft that will take the Artemis astronauts to the Moon. There’s also the Lunar Gateway and the Artemis Base Camp, the infrastructure that will facilitate regular missions to the Moon after 2028. In between, NASA has also partnered with companies to develop the Human Landing Systems (HLS) that will transport the Artemis astronauts to the lunar surface and back. This includes the Starship HLS SpaceX is currently developing for NASA, which will rendezvous with the Orion spacecraft in lunar orbit and allow the Artemis III astronauts to land on the Moon (which will take place no sooner than September 2026). In a series of newly-updated images, SpaceX has provided artistic renders of what key moments in this mission will look like.

These elements are crucial to SpaceX’s long-term plans to send payload and crews to the Moon and Mars, which require that the Starship refuel in orbit so that it can make a trans-lunar injection (TLO) or trans-Mars injection (TMI). For the Artemis missions, this will allow the Starship HLS to reach lunar orbit, where it will rendezvous with the Orion spacecraft. Once there, the Orion will dock with the Starship HLS (shown below), and two Artemis crew members will transfer to the HLS. The Orion spacecraft docking with the Starship HLS in lunar orbit.

Similar to how the Starship has conducted many landings here on Earth, this will consist of the spacecraft firing two of its Raptor engines to make a powered descent (shown below). Once the spacecraft safely lands on the Moon (shown at top), the two astronauts will descend to the surface using the spacecraft’s elevator (shown at bottom) and spend approximately a week exploring the South Pole-Aitken Basin, collecting samples, performing science experiments, and observing the Moon’s environment.

While these surface operations take place, the other Artemis crew will await them in orbit. The Starship HLS and its two crewmembers will then launch into lunar orbit and rendezvous with the Orion spacecraft one last time. After returning to the Orion, the entire crew will return home, leaving the Starship HLS in orbit. Two Artemis III astronauts using the Starship HLS elevator to descend to the surface.

NASA is also working with SpaceX to further develop the HLS to meet the extended requirements for the Artemis IV mission, which is scheduled to launch no sooner than September 2028. This mission will see a crew rendezvous with the Artemis Gateway, which will be launched ahead of time, then land on the lunar surface and conduct extensive science operations. This will include field geology experiments, deploying instruments, and collecting more samples.

Every year, NASA releases a detailed simulation of the Moon that shows how it will change through the year. They produce a couple of versions that show how it appears from the northern and southern hemisphere and others that highlight different features. Not only does it show the phases through the year but it also shows the change in size as its completes its orbit. The change in apparent size of the Moon is a result of its elliptical orbit so that it can appear up to 30% brighter.  The Moon is Earth’s only permanent natural satellite. It has captivated humans for thousands of as it orbits at an average distance of 384,400 kilometres. It plays a key role in shaping our tides through its gravitational pull. The lunar surface is a desolate, rocky world with colossal mountains, and plains known as maria.  It has no atmosphere and so experiences extreme temperature shifts, from intense solar heating in the day to freezing cold at night. Over the centuries, it has inspired countless myths and driven exploration that has culminated in the Apollo missions and soon Artemis.  Global map of the Moon, as seen from the Clementine mission, showing the lunar near- and farside.

The phases of the Moon represent its motion around the Earth and its changing appearance when viewed from Earth. The cycle lasts about 29.5 days and is known as a lunar month. It begins with a new moon when the Moon lies approximately between Earth and the Sun and appears nearly invisible as we look at the night time hemisphere.  The bright sunlit crescent contrasts with the darker lighting of twice-reflected light supplied by sunlight reflecting off our own planet. Credit: Bob King As the cycle continues the crescent appears, getting larger and larger marking the waxing crescent phase. Eventually it leads to a first quarter phase when half of the Moon appears illuminated. It increases through the waxing gibbous phase before reaching full moon. The cycle then reverses through the waning phases to new moon again.  The phases appear nicely in the video from NASA but what is also apparent is the gentle rocking of the Moon. Known as libration, it means we get to see slightly more than 50% of the lunar surface, 59% over time. The phenomenon occurs due to the axial tilt of the Moon and its elliptical orbit. It can be categorised as three different types; longitudinal (caused by changes in Moon’s orbital speed,) latitudinal (caused by tilt in the Moon’s axis) and diurnal (caused by Earth’s rotation and a slight shift in position of observer.) The video simulation produced by NASA has been created from images taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO.) It has been in orbit since the summer of 2009 and has produced images of unprecedented quality. Using advanced instruments, it has mapped the surface in high detail, revealing detailed topography, temperature, and geological maps. It has identified landing sites, especially near the poles, where water ice may exist, and has captured images of some of the Apollo landing sites.
