Book Overview

"Artemis will be the broadest and most diverse international human space exploration program in history, and the Artemis Accords are the vehicle that will establish this singular global coalition." -Jim Bridenstine, NASA Administrator (2020) The Artemis Accords (2020), drafted by NASA and the US Department of State, is an arrangement between the US and other governments for cooperation in the civil exploration and peaceful use of the Moon, Mars, and other astronomical objects. Among The Artemis Accords' goals are the return of humans to the Moon by 2025 and eventually a human mission to Mars. It also describes its ten principles from "peaceful exploration" to "preserving heritage" and "deconfliction of activities", which are based upon the Outer Space Treaty of 1967 (included in this publication). This treaty is the foundation of international space law, which has been signed by over 110 countries, including all major spacefaring nations. This publication will appeal to students of space exploration, journalists and anyone interested in the future of humans in space.

About NASA

NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration), established in 1958, is the United States agency of scientific research, technological development, and exploration in space. Its vision since its inception has been "to reach for new heights and reveal the unknown so that what we do and learn will benefit all humankind." Responsible not only for landing the first men on the moon in 1969, NASA's technological research has led to the development of the first weather and communications satellites, over 130 flights within 30 years of space shuttle missions, the landing of rovers on the Mars surface, as well as the establishment with 16 other nations of an International Space Station in 2000. Since the retirement of the space shuttle missions in 2011, NASA has continued its scientific research with several aims, most notably to land humans on Mars and to launch the Next Generation Air Transportation System by 2025, a program to design aircraft that are more fuel efficient and environmentally responsible.
