NASA's Artemis II mission will send the 4-person crew around the moon, thanks in part to the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.

As humanity blasts off into a new space race, we need a model of exploration that emphasizes stewardship of other worlds, not exploitation.

The four Artemis II astronauts are nearly halfway to the moon since launching Wednesday, while taking some stunning images.
