Long-Term Commitment to Explore and Sustain our Earth-Moon Environment
Long-term human & robotic exploration of the Earth-Moon environment will move humanity into the Solar System with a logical, sustainable, and science-based approach. The Moon has the potential to stimulate the economy and enable scientific discovery. Lunar science could open a window into Earth’s early history (and potentially the origin of life).
