Overview

We are witnessing a very exciting time in space exploration and innovation. Among many noteworthy highlights, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is making steady and substantial progress with the Artemis missions which will return humans to the Moon for the first time in 50 years. In April of this year, the European Space Agency (ESA) launched the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, which is headed to our largest planetary neighbor to conduct experiments to help us better understand the gas giant planets in general and Jupiter's environment in particular. JUICE will investigate whether life might be possible beneath the icy layers of Jupiter's moons. In addition, just this summer, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) launched Chandrayaan-3, a spacecraft that will place a rover on the Moon for further lunar study; if successful, this will make India only the fourth country to land a rover on the Moon. Additionally, companies such as SpaceX, Boeing, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and others continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in the private sector.
