The station is actually a critical testbed for NASA to understand as well as eliminate the difficulties of long-duration spaceflight as well as to increase commercial options in reduced The planet track. As commercial business focus on supplying human space transport services and also locations as portion of a robust reduced Earth orbit economic condition, NASA's Artemis campaign is actually underway at the Moon, where the organization is getting ready for future human expedition of Mars.Discover extra relevant information on NASA's Business Workers Course at:.https://www.nasa.gov/commercialcrew.- end-.Joshua Finch/ Claire O'SheaHeadquarters, Washington202-358-1100joshua.a.finch@nasa.gov/ claire.a.o'shea@nasa.gov.Raegan ScharfetterJohnson Space Facility, Houston281-910-4989raegan.r.scharfetter@nasa.gov.
