"The NASA Artemis program, now supported by 67 countries under the Artemis
Accords
, plans to return humans to the Moon by 2028. A recent White House
Executive Order has gone further, directing NASA to establish a permanent lunar
outpost by 2030.

China also has plans to build a lunar base by 2035.

Building the first long-term habitat on another world will push our engineering
to its limits. But lunar architecture isn’t just an engineering challenge. At
its heart, it is about understanding human experience at the extremes – and how
it can help improve conditions for those already living at the edges here on
Earth."
