NASA Explorer - The South Pole

As Artemis astronauts touch down on the Moon, they embark on a journey to uncharted territories. Specifically, their focus lies on exploring the South Pole region, housing the Moon's largest crater, areas with constant light and profound shadows, and some of the solar system's coldest temperatures.

The exploration of the Moon's South Pole holds the promise of revealing more about lunar history and the broader solar system. With its frozen water reserves, this region becomes pivotal for sustainable living on the lunar surface and propels aspirations for deeper exploration into the solar system.

Artemis astronauts serve as ambassadors for humanity, undertaking the task of bringing back lunar rocks and soil. These precious samples will undergo analysis by successive generations of scientists, unlocking unimaginable insights into our cosmic history.
