SpaceX & NASA officially NEW Plans to build the 1st Moon Base by 2024
Huge thanks to:

"When can we put humans on the moon again"?
That has been a question that has gnawed at the hearts of companies and space organizations for the fifty years after the first Moon landing.
Now, we have the answer as the world once again heads to the moon, NASA and SpaceX are the leaders. The combination of two generations dominating the space industry is opening a door to bring people closer to the mystical universe.
How will we build a Moonbase?
All this and more in today’s episode of Great SpaceX!

NASA is getting ready to send astronauts to explore more of the Moon as part of the Artemis program, and the agency has selected SpaceX to continue the development of the first commercial human lander. It is designed as a version of the Starship, SpaceX’s flagship rocket was being developed for Elon’s vision of making it to Mars.
Announced in 2017 under the Trump administration, “Artemis” aims to return U.S. astronauts to the lunar surface in 2024 for the first time since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, including landing the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.
The Artemis space missions are focused on lunar exploration, but NASA's long-term goals are even more ambitious.
Using the capabilities, technology, and research developed during the Artemis spaceflights and landings, NASA intends to launch a future crewed mission to Mars.
This ambitious NASA 'Moon to Mars' plan involves building a new space station in lunar orbit and, eventually, a habitable Moonbase.
Regarding the Artemis base camp mission, its highlight is the establishment of a settlement that will help with deeper space missions, especially NASA and SpaceX’s Mars conquests.
As Kathy Lueders, associate administrator for human spaceflight at NASA Headquarters in Washington said, “With more demand for access to the Moon, we are developing the technologies to achieve an unprecedented human and robotic presence 240,000 miles from home. Our experience on the Moon this decade will prepare us for an even greater adventure in the universe – human exploration of Mars.”

To be resolved, thank you.

The stars are within our reach and the moon is no exception. Inspiring.

[stuartmcmahon]

Im really not surprised that the Spacex space suit development is already ahead of

[kevinsamphere]

This is a wonderful idea before we build a MARS base much closer to home and we will learn so much

[kevinsamphere]

This is only about 2 years away WOW the exciment building up.

[garypeak]

Great info on a subject not much appreciated in the media. Thanks, Great SpaceX. After growing up at the dawn of the Space Age, and watching the first men land on the Moom, it has been a very long wait for our return.

[MarkenstineGreen]

It's a start in the right direction. So much closer than Mars.

[utkuerkan]

Great video, upload similar content in future please. All the best to the Artemis program, I ambition it becomes a reality on time. All the best & stay safe.

[PsyloSatan]

Honestly that timing seems a bit optimistic, but... I would love to be wrong about that. It's exciting to think it could only be a handful of years away if enough things go right.

[ln]

Interesting thankyou. Don't know about the 2024 though - seems like this date may have slipped back a bit.

[youtubynotme]

i would love to work on moon suit design teams, those current ones are so impractical

[Khantia]

I didn't hear a line in the video, that was supporting that this CAN be achieved by 2024...

[greggweber]

2:22 Has China already drawn a dashed line around it saying "No Trespassing Allowed"?

[williamtaylor]

I just want to say love your work. But I do have a fee questions. One they said they would have astronauts on the surface for two months at a time. But what rocket will they use? As of this moment nasa dose not have access to any rocket that is cost effective anuff or a production time to have a quick turnaround.

[LunCoSim]

Hi!

I'm working on an opensource Lunar Colony sim.

It'll be possible to model the whole mission in it!

[olivergrumitt]

Landing on the Moon by 2024 is a total fantasy - the SLS has not even made its first flight and has encountered so many problems and Starship has also not even made its first test flight. Also landing such a huge spacecraft on the Moon is a very daunting technical challenge and surely requires a lot of test flights to ensure it is safe to carry people to and from the Moon.
Anyway, why the rush? As past experience shows, rushing to meet too short a deadline can lead to disaster and in spaceflight, you cannot afford to cut corners. The very nature of spaceflight means that delays often occur - without delays, the potential for tragedy is a lot greater. Better to delay to make sure everything is as right as it is possible to be than rushing into a disaster. We all saw what happened to the Challenger Space Shuttle In the rush to launch. That mistake can NOT be allowed to happen again.

[rbg]

That would be awesome. I'd love to see that before I pass on

[Sullaban]

Hey! An ad! step 1) take out the ear buds, step2) pick up a book and let that ad run while reading. step 3) read and read and read while the ads run.

Great Video with awesome animations! My concern about their plan is why are they stuck on the idea of building everything with flimsy inflatables and modules designed to fit on the puny SLS that can only support 4 persons at a time when Starship has already won the bid for the Lander? Can't we just replace the half dozen planned SLS launches to build the ISS 2.0 in Lunar Orbit with a Starship that is designed as an orbital space station on the interior and make it one launch? And leave a Lunar Starship in the bottom of a shadowed crater with a Lunar Base as it's interior? It would be orders of magnitude more cost effective... All the Crew-rated four person modules have to do is be able to get to orbit and dock with a Starship, something that is REQUIRED anyway for the first Liner ascent... I like the idea of 8 seats on the first Lunar Starship to orbit with four of them being for prototype Teslabots slash crash dummies that can wave at the cameras, pretend they are using the touchscreens, and high-five the four Astronauts when they dock for the Lunar ascent.

Forget water. Do the occupants of the base provide enough carbon for plants to thrive?

[anoniemw.]

I think the first lunar-starships will create landing pads for regular starships wich will land back on earth with materials from the moon. That will create a simple and reusable earth to oon system
