London: Since the beginning of civilization, humans have been curious to know the secrets of space. It was the desire to know the secrets of space, which took man to the moon. But even though humans have reached the Moon, scientists’ interest in the Moon has not diminished even today. Not only this, the Moon is going to be so special in space exploration that scientists are now preparing to build a base there. American space agency NASA has prepared a complete plan for this. British space scientist Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock has explained in detail about the importance of the base on the Moon as well as NASA’s Artemis Project and plans for a base on the Moon.After all, why is the base on the moon special?
If there is any body closest to the Earth in our solar system, it is the Moon. In fact, if a mission is to be sent to another part of the solar system, then its distance will increase a lot, in such a situation the best hope for the success of the mission will be that instead of going directly from the Earth, there should be a base in between from where the mission can be launched. Can be launched and returned back there safely. There is no better place than the moon for this work. This is the reason why NASA has once again become interested in the Moon. NASA is sending people to the Moon for the first time in 50 years through Artemis mission.
Attempt to use the moon as a base
Dr. Maggie Aderin Pocock told UNILD that “NASA’s Artemis mission is sending humans to the Moon, but its real purpose is to use the Moon as a staging post.” NASA itself has said that the objective of the project will be to try to understand how humans can live outside the Earth and how human habitation can be established away from this huge blue planet. Aderin further said, “Since the Moon is smaller than planet Earth, it has less gravity. In such a situation, launching from the Moon becomes easier and with that we can start looking at places like Mars.

“I’m talking about 30, 40, 50 years,” Adrien said. Then people are thinking about having a human base on the Moon and actually building rockets on the Moon and launching them from the Moon because of the low gravity. Scientists use this argument to answer those who say that instead of building a base on the Moon, we should send missions directly from Earth to Mars. NASA said that with the Artemis mission, we are exploring the Moon for scientific discovery and technological advancement and will learn how to live and work on other worlds while preparing for a human mission to Mars.
