The US has not landed a man on the moon since 1972, but that hiatus looks likely to end in the coming years. NASA's Artemis program looks to surpass the heights achieved with the Apollo missions to the lunar surface in the 1960s and 1970s.

Artemis II is currently scheduled for 2024, with this mission slated to be the first manned mission around the moon in half a century, but no astronaut is planned to land on the lunar surface. NASA unveiled the crew for Artemis II in April, which features NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen.
