NASA has taken a significant step in its Artemis program, unveiling the names of the next crew set to venture into space. However, in a surprise twist, these astronauts will not be walking on the Moon or even approaching lunar orbit. Instead, they will be embarking on a mission to the Gateway, a lunar-orbiting space station that serves as a vital hub for deep space exploration. As NASA continues to push the boundaries of space travel, the selection of this new crew marks an important milestone in the agency's ambitious plans to return humans to the Moon and eventually send them to Mars.
Nasa names its next Artemis crew, though they will not be walking on the Moon or even going anywhere near it.
