NASA is embarking on a new era of exploration!
With Artemis, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the surface of the Moon and safely return them to Earth. 
 
This week, we're highlighting resources that give an overview of the Artemis missions.
For Younger Students

NASA is going back to the Moon and we want you to come along. Read online, download a PDF, print coloring pages, or listen to an astronaut read it aloud. Includes comprehension guide.
From a ground shot of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, to an artist’s rendition of an Artemis astronaut about to take their first steps on the Moon, these virtual backgrounds provide a glimpse into some of the most important pieces and milestones of the Artemis missions.

Join us on Wednesday, April 13 at 7 p.m. EDT, for an hour of engagement as we highlight the "Choose Your Landing Site" hands-on activity from the "Landing Humans on the Moon" educator guide. This activity challenges students to determine the most suitable lunar landing site using NASA topographic maps and data.

A companion student session will be held the following day, Thursday, April 14, at 10 a.m. EDT.
