Artemis III crewed low Earth orbit demonstration (planned)

node

Planned mission in which Orion and four crew rendezvous and dock in low Earth orbit with test articles of the SpaceX Starship HLS and/or Blue Origin Blue Moon MK2 landers, entering the landers and checking out interfaces and suits. A programme target, not a forecast; the date and content have already changed once.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.

  31. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman announced on 27 February 2026 that Artemis III will no longer attempt a lunar landing but will fly a crewed rendezvous and docking demonstration in low Earth orbit with SpaceX and Blue Origin Human Landing System test articles, targeted for 2027, and that the first crewed lunar landing moves to Artemis IV no earlier than 2028.
