The US space agency, NASA, welcomed students and teachers back to the classroom, whether in person or online, and invited the next generation of explorers, or what it calls the “Generation of Artemis,” to learn more about the mission that will pave the way for the landing of the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.

NASA indicated that the Artemis program will reach new heights this year with its unmanned mission, which is the first integrated launch of a large rocket under the Space Launch System (SLS) to send the Orion spacecraft around the moon's orbit and return to Earth before future flights with astronauts.

The Team Engaging Program for Museums and Non-formal Institutions of NASA supports many non-formal education institutions, through the Artemis content for Exploration of the Moon, to enhance the absorption capabilities of the natural sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics and help inspire the next generation of explorers. 

NASA is also collaborating with other organizations and companies to collaborate on educational resources prior to the launch of Artemis I, including: Girl Scouts of America, LEGO Education, Nogen, Discovery Education, and Frito-Lay, Tinker, Microsoft, Peanuts Worldwide, and others who have helped in this regard.

It is noteworthy that NASA named the current astronauts "Artemis Generation", the name of the latest lunar program, after the Greek goddess of the moon, the twin sister of the God of the Sun Apollo.
