Paul MackinHOST
And then the lunar lander will head off to the moon, do what it's going to there, and come back.
Paul MackinHOST
So under NASA's revised architecture, Artemis III is expected to test rendezvous and docking operations between Orion and the commercially developed landers in Earth orbit.
Paul MackinHOST
So Starship's human landing system is one of the central vehicles, and Blue Origin also has their lunar lander that hopefully – Artemis III is going to test both of those.
Paul MackinHOST
Artemis IV is now targeted to conduct the program's first crewed lunar landing.
Paul MackinHOST
Before Starship can carry astronauts to the Moon, however, SpaceX must demonstrate orbital refueling, long-duration flight docking, and an uncrewed lunar landing.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
Stay with me.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
Artemis III is shaping up to be what NASA calls its most complicated mission ever.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
A three-spaceship ballot involving NASA's Orion capsule, Blue Origin's Blue Moon lander, and SpaceX's enormous Starship.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
Orion will dock with Blue Moon first, then later go nose-to-nose with the 52-metre Starship, the space equivalent of a delivery van kissing a 15-storey building.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
For the first time ever on a crewed mission, control of the combined spacecraft will switch from one ship and one mission control to another.
Anthony BadolatoHOST
Here's Jeremy Parsons, NASA's Artemis Program Manager.
Jeremy ParsonsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Artemis III is an incredibly exciting, complicated, and highly coordinated multi-launch campaign.
Jeremy ParsonsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's gonna happen in a short period of time with three of the world's most powerful rockets.
EricHOST
Allow me to grab my lunar excursion.
EricHOST
I'm going to show you the fucking Artemis III.
EricHOST
Here we go.
WayneHOST
And as...
WayneHOST
Rob alluded to, she's working on Artemis III right now on the space program.
WayneHOST
And now she wants to go into space.
WayneHOST
So, yeah, she's very big into all that stuff.
WayneHOST

Alex McColganHOST
Artemis I was an uncrewed test flight around the Moon in late 2022, followed by Artemis II in 2026, which carried a crew further from Earth than any humans before, on a nine-day journey around the Moon and back.
Alex McColganHOST
Artemis III will be NASA's most complex crewed mission to date, involving three separate rocket launches and two privately built lunar landers that will carry out a series of demonstrations in low Earth orbit designed to validate critical systems for future Moon landings.
Alex McColganHOST
Artemis IV will push further still, with astronauts actually touching down on the lunar surface, staying approximately a week, more than twice the Apollo 17 record.
Alex McColganHOST
But these milestones are only steps towards a far more ambitious plan, transforming the Moon into a place where people actually live.
John McFallGUEST
I think primarily people are selected for missions that because they have a specific skill set.
John McFallGUEST
If you look at the crew for Artemis III, for example, there are requirements for the Artemis III mission that are different to requirements for the Artemis II mission or different to the ISS missions.
John McFallGUEST
They're more akin to maybe the Gemini era of missions and all sorts of stuff like that.
John McFallGUEST
So I think there is a... certainly when you're putting together these international crews i think there is a requirement to first um select people based on the skill set that you require but here at um well not just at isa but with nasa as well and other space agencies canada and um the UAE and Japan and stuff.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
We are not turning every rocket into a work of art.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
Artemis III is already being assembled right now at a pace many doubted was possible just months ago.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
Before year-end, we intend to roll out to Launch Complex 39B for a tanking test and send a message to our workforce, our industry, and our rivals overseas, NASA is back, and we are not gonna sit idly by.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
We are not just a procurement organization.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
We are gonna do the extremely demanding work and achieve our objectives safely, responsibly, and urgently because that is what meeting the moment requires.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
Now in the summer of 2027, Artemis III will launch on SLS into lower Earth orbit and rendezvous with lander test vehicles from Blue Origin and SpaceX in what will be a remarkable display of the three most powerful rockets and spacecraft in the world.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
We will test interoperability and show what a future multi-launch campaign can actually look like.
Jared IsaacmanGUEST
What we learn will inform the uncrewed test landings that follow, and then Artemis IV in 2028 when American astronauts return to the lunar surface, and this time to stay.
Marshall PorterfieldGUEST
What we're doing is not Apollo.
Marshall PorterfieldGUEST
And the reason you know that is because they all of a sudden added it in an Artemis 3 mission.
Marshall PorterfieldGUEST
When Jared came on board at NASA, he said, oh, we need to actually test the human landing system before we do a mission on the moon with people in it.
Marshall PorterfieldGUEST
We're way behind and way off track.
GaryHOST
And as well, there's going to be more Artemis stuff there because Artemis 2 mission has just happened.
GaryHOST
Artemis 3 has just kicked off.
GaryHOST
So there's going to be a lot more Artemis things there.
GaryHOST
So I'm very excited to see the new stuff.
