In September 2025, NASA announced that it expects to launch its Artemis II mission as soon as February 2026 (BBC, Ars Technica). The Artemis system is NASA's planned means to return humans to the moon, with Artemis II planned to be the first crewed flight to the moon since the Apollo program (NASA - Artemis II). A launch will be considered successful upon a successful core stage separation (NASA - Artemis II Map). The question will close early upon NASA announcing that no launch will be attempted before 1 May 2026.
