An update is coming today on NASA's Artemis 2 lunar mission to launch four astronauts on a historic journey around the moon.

NASA is aiming for an April 1 launch date for a mission that will send astronauts around the moon and back as part of its ambitious lunar landing program. Four astronauts will fly aboard NASA’s Orion spacecraft,

Office of the Inspector General predicts future NASA astronauts will “likely encounter a life-threatening emergency in space.”

At the core of Isaacman’s concerns is the low flight rate of the SLS rocket and Artemis missions. During past exploration missions, from Mercury through Gemini, Apollo, and the Space Shuttle program, NASA has launched humans on average about once every three months. It has been nearly 3.5 years since Artemis I launched.

In shaking up its Artemis lunar program, NASA's new moon plan looks more like the Apollo missions of the 1960s. Instead of landing on the surface on Artemis III, NASA hopes to do so on Artemis IV.

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman announced significant changes to the agency's Artemis program, which aims to land on the moon in 2028.

Artemis II has been plagued by similar issues to those faced by its predecessor, leading NASA to shake up its plan to return humans to the Moon.

NASA is revamping its Artemis moon landing program. NASA's new administrator Jared Isaacman announced the shake-up in the flight lineup Friday, days after the space agency's new moon rocket returned to its Florida hangar for more repairs.

NASA's huge Space Launch System rocket has been repaired and is ready for rollout back to the launch pad next week.

In a major shakeup of the Artemis program, NASA is adding more missions to its timeline to land astronauts on the moon in 2028.
