NASA's Artemis mission is not a one-off thing, and this mission is said to be the first of many. With all the latest technological advancements now available, the space agency is able to plan ahead and dream big, with the first human lunar mission in 2024 set to take about a week. The ultimate goal is to establish an environment that supports living away from Earth, working on the moon, and ultimately conducting a multi-year human mission to Mars. The plans are huge, but NASA is not the only space explorer to dream big Elon Musk hopes to colonize Mars in the future, which means that his company, SpaceX, is working on a Mars mission of its own.

Before NASA can have humans living on the moon, it has to send the first Artemis mission in that direction, and things are on track so far. The rollout is set to happen on March 17. This means NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft will be taken to their destination at Pad 39B at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Although this is being done in preparation for the future launch of Artemis, the launch itself is not taking place just yet.
