NASA to launch Artemis 2 crewed lunar flyby in early 2026, testing systems for future Moon landings.
NASA plans to launch its first crewed Artemis mission, Artemis 2, in early 2026—potentially as soon as February—with a 10-day flight around the Moon, marking the first crewed lunar flyby since 1972.
The mission will carry four astronauts, including three Americans and Canada’s Jeremy Hansen, aboard the Space Launch System rocket and Orion capsule, both undergoing key safety and performance upgrades based on the uncrewed Artemis I test.
The flight will test critical systems, conduct deep space health monitoring, and simulate docking procedures for future lunar landings.
This mission paves the way for Artemis 3, aiming for a 2027 lunar landing using a SpaceX Starship lander.
NASA emphasizes safety and readiness, with the long-term goal of establishing a sustainable human presence on the Moon and advancing toward future Mars missions amid growing international competition.
