NASA wants to build a base on the Moon by the 2030s – how and why it plans to build up to a long-term lunar presence

I'll *never* forget how we watched the first #moonLanding live in 1969. It was a "wonder" how they arrived with these Star-Trek-like clickediclick buttons and primitive computers.
In 2026, the announcements leave me completely cold. A fascist state is showing off, and an a-hole who litters #space and poisons the atmosphere has a hand in it. And then, despite all the technology available today, they can’t even manage a landing. For me: a story of #knowledge loss.
Just a few days left before we finally go back!
Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen are launching on April 1st from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida
Liftoff is set for 6:24 p.m. EDT (2224 GMT)
I for one can't wait!
