The female astronaut would step into the celestial as part of the Artemis mission. Recently, guesses about his identity have begun.
More than 50 years after the completion of the Apollo program, the US space agency plans to return to the Moon by 2024 to test its next-generation spacecraft, which could take people to Mars in the future. NASA has announced that, as part of the Artemis mission to return to the Moon, which was named Apollo's twin brother, a female astronaut can move to the moon.
The astronaut can be assumed to be among the 12 women currently serving in NASA's ranks. They are all 40-53 years old, former military pilots, doctors and researchers who have been selected from thousands of applicants since the 1990s. According to earlier astronauts and experts, due to the upcoming deadline, it is unlikely that a newcomer will be sent into space.
Never before have there been so many female astronauts at NASA today. When the US Space Agency was founded in 1958, only members of the military could be members, only men serving.
There are four female members of the 21st NASA astronaut team, selected in 2013, among the potential Moon. This was the year with most female members. Currently, they are between 40 and 41 years old, their first space trips by 2020.
Anne McClain is a former military helicopter pilot at the International Space Station (ISS) until the end of June. There is also Christina Koch , who will soon overthrow the record of her longest stays in space with 11 months.
The other two members of their class, Jessica Meir and Nicole Mann , may have a chance to play for her . Both of them are in the middle of their training, as a result of which they travel to the ISS. Sunita Williams is also a chance to make a third space trip. Several women astronauts are currently undergoing training, others have not flown for nine years, but are actively serving NASA.
The Moon mission team will have four members , two of whom will quit the moon.
