  • How is NASA returning Astronauts to the Moon? - Artemis
    Aug 13 2022

    In our first episode of the Cosmos Safari podcast, hosts Dave Farina and Rob Webb dive into NASA's Artemis program that will return humans to the moon for the first time in over 50 years and eventually to Mars! Learn more about this awesome NASA mission and explore the possibilities that future human space travel makes possible.

    The first lunar landings inspired an entire generation to look beyond the Earth and imagine endless possibilities. Technologies created to meet the demands of these missions have shaped our modern world in almost every way, and the Artemis program will likely reap similar unforeseen benefits as well. These NASA Spinoff technologies may very well change the world as we know it.
