In NASA's Artemis Mission, NASA is focusing on diversity as a goal. For example, NASA wants to have the first woman and first person of color take steps on the Moon, and they want to explore more of it compared to the first visit.

The NASA Artemis is a program created by NASA for the purpose of returning astronauts to the lunar surface. Artemis is named after the Greek goddess of the moon and twin sister to Apollo, the name of the first NASA mission to the moon over 50 years ago. The program uses brand new technology and advanced techniques to advance towards the goal of being able to explore the Moon again, soon. The 2024 mission will be done with the Artemis III mission, after launching Artemis II and I. If the “2024 NASA Artemis Mission: Return to the Moon” is successful, astronauts and robots alike will come together to explore more territory of the moon such as the lunar South Pole.

• Artemis I is a planned uncrewed test flight for NASA's Artemis program. It is the first integrated flight of the agency's Orion MPCV and Space Launch System heavy-lift rocket, and is expected to launch on November 4, 2021.
• Artemis 2 is the first scheduled crewed mission of NASA's Orion spacecraft. The current plan is for a crewed Orion spacecraft to perform a lunar flyby test and return to Earth. It is currently planned to be launched in August 2023.

Another goal  NASA has is to inspire people to get educated in the field of STEM from the success of Artemis. They hope that with the new age of Artemis and its successes that will hopefully come in the future, more people will want to pursue careers in the STEM field.

The 2024 Return to the Moon mission also has plans to research and find necessary resources for life and sustainability in the long run on the Moon.
• NASA has stated that they will be looking for water and other things needed for long-term exploration.
• The crew will need to learn and adapt to live on the surface of a lunar body that has only been explored 12 times by man [as of May 2021]

The data collected from long term explorations on the moon will greatly benefit future explorations like those to Mars. NASA will also collaborate with their commercial and international partners to achieve the goal of establishing sustainable exploration of the Moon for the first time.

The 2024 mission will be the first time outside of watching historical footage most people witness humans walking on another planetary body. NASA would include an emphasis on mobility to allow astronauts to explore more of the Moon and conduct more science. These include lunar terrains that would help transport crew around the landing zone and other places that may not be very accessible, safe, or efficient to do on the crews’ own. Another core element that would be implemented into NASA’s Artemis Mission would be the habitable mobility platform. This would allow crew members to take trips across the Moon lasting up to 45 days. Rovers and other robotic helpers will assist the risky journey exploring the Moon. Artemis will use "Gateway" in lunar orbit, built with commercial and international partners. The lunar outpost will serve as a command and control module for surface expeditions and an office and home for astronauts away from Earth.

On December 11, 2020, NASA revealed which astronauts will be training to be a part of the Artemis program. The selection was very diverse, as it consisted of ½ women and people of color.
The list of Artemis Team of Astronauts Eligible for Early Moon Missions:
• Joseph Acaba
• Kayla Barron
• Raja Chari
• Matthew Dominick
• Victor Glover
• Warren Hoburg
• Jonny Kim
• Christina Hammock Koch
• Kjell Lindgren
• Nicole A. Mann
• Anne McClain
• Jessica Meir
• Jasmin Moghbeli
• Kate Rubins
• Frank Rubio
• Scott Tingle
• Jessica Watkins
• Stephanie Wilson

Many safety tests will be conducted to make sure the astronauts participating are safe and comfortable on their trip/stay on the Moon. Astronauts working on the lunar surface can provide tests and use new technology (featured in the Lunar Surface Innovation Initiative) while they are on the Moon.
