Mission Possible: Our Return to the Moon

Curious about humanity’s next giant leap? Want to know what it takes to send astronauts farther than anyone has traveled in more than 50 years? Get ready for an exciting look at Artemis II, NASA’s upcoming mission that will send a crew around the Moon!

In this hands-on, one-hour program, we’ll explore the challenges of human spaceflight—from extreme environments to high-tech spacecraft—and discover how astronauts prepare for adventure beyond Earth. Then put your skills to the test in a Moon Mission simulation game, where you’ll make critical decisions and see how well your team can guide a mission to success.

Whether you’re a fan of space, science, or epic exploration, come blast off with us and experience what it takes to journey back to the Moon!
