Артемида II и возвращение в глубокий космос: пилотируемая лунная миссия NASA и будущее человеческой экспансии

Artemis II and the Return to Deep Space: NASA’s Crewed Moon Mission and the Future of Human Exploration tells the story of one of the most important space missions of the modern era. More than fifty years after Apollo, Artemis II is set to carry astronauts around the Moon and back, marking the first crewed mission of NASA’s Artemis program. This book explains what the mission is, who the crew are, how the hardware works, and why this flight matters far beyond a single launch. Written in clear and simple language, the book looks at the road from Apollo to Artemis, the training of the astronauts, the design of Orion and the Space Launch System, the role of NASA’s international and commercial partners, and the larger goal of reopening deep space for human travel. It is a guide for readers who want to understand not only the mission itself, but also what its success could mean for future lunar exploration and the long-term path toward Mars.
