The US will start sending a lunar outpost to the Moon every year beginning in 2027
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States of America plans to sharply increase the number of space flights to Earth's natural satellite, Zamin.uz reported.
According to Jared Isaacman, a representative of the agency, in an interview with Fox News, it is planned to send unmanned spacecraft to the Moon almost every month starting from 2027. This information is widely covered in international media sources.
As the specialist emphasized, the first test flights of unmanned vehicles could begin as early as this year. The main goal of these regularly conducted robotic landings is to establish a permanent American base in the south polar region of the Moon.
To achieve this, engineering and technical preparation, as well as the expansion of necessary infrastructure, will be carried out. Jared Isaacman specifically noted that the technologies developed and tested during the process of building infrastructure on the lunar surface are of great importance for the future of manageable astronautics as a whole.
The experience and skills gained in the field of automatic construction will fulfill a solid foundation task for organizing humanity's first long-duration expedition to the planet Mars. According to the schedule of the third phase of the Artemis program, the landing of American astronauts on the lunar surface is expected to take place in 2028.
The sending of the first controllable spacecraft to Mars, called the Red Planet, is planned for the mid-2030s. These large-scale projects are expected to take humanity's capabilities in space exploration to a new level.
