JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — NASA is planning to land the first woman on the moon in 2024.
Here’s the Buzz: The agency is putting $28 billion behind the mission, which is part of NASA’s Artemis plan. This would mark the first time humans would land on the lunar surface since 1972.
Astronauts will travel 240,000 miles to the moon's orbit, using a commercial human landing system to go back and forth between the Orion spacecraft and lunar south pole, according to USA Today.
NASA plans to launch an unmanned test flight around the moon next year and a second one with a crew in 2023.
The mission will last about a week and astronauts plan to collect samples and search for water that could be converted into fuel and oxygen.
