The place is an important testbed for NASA to recognize as well as get over the problems of long-duration spaceflight and to expand office options in low The planet track. As office providers focus on giving human area transit services and places as portion of a strong low The planet orbit economic situation, NASA's Artemis initiative is actually underway at the Moon, where the company is actually preparing for future individual exploration of Mars.Locate much more info on NASA's Office Team Program at:.https://www.nasa.gov/commercialcrew.- side-.Joshua Finch/ Claire O'SheaHeadquarters, Washington202-358-1100joshua.a.finch@nasa.gov/ claire.a.o'shea@nasa.gov.Raegan ScharfetterJohnson Room Center, Houston281-910-4989raegan.r.scharfetter@nasa.gov.
