Times of India·Tuesday, 9 June 2026
NASA has revealed the crew for its Artemis III mission, with Commander Randy Bresnik leading. The 2027 mission will focus on complex Earth orbit tests, including rendezvous and docking with commercial landers. These tests are designed to pave the way for the Artemis IV lunar South Pole landing in 2028.
Why It Matters
NASA's return to the Moon is one of the biggest space stories of this decade. The Artemis programme is also a benchmark that space agencies like ISRO watch closely as they plan their own lunar ambitions.
