NASA’s First Lunar Space Station Modules Are Being Built!

Apart of NASA’s big plan to return to the Moon, for the first time, the agency is building a space station in lunar orbit. These modules are intended to act as a home-away-from-home for astronauts during extended stays in lunar orbit. They also are meant to enable additional capabilities in support of the Artemis Program and the return to the Moon. When the station is complete, it will feature many different segments and establish an impressive footprint, however, this being said, it will start as just two modules. These two initial modules are set to launch in 2025 which coming up fast. In order to prepare for that launch, the segments need to be completed well before the deadline to allow for extensive testing and qualification. Right now we are seeing physical progress as they approach different milestones. At the same time, certain delays are causing concern for the future of this project and its timeline. Here I will go more in-depth into the physical station progress, the first two modules, possible delays, and more.
