The place is an essential testbed for NASA to understand and get rid of the difficulties of long-duration spaceflight as well as to grow office opportunities in reduced Planet orbit. As office business concentrate on giving human area transportation companies and also locations as part of a sturdy low Planet orbit economic climate, NASA's Artemis initiative is actually underway at the Moon, where the agency is getting ready for potential human expedition of Mars.Locate even more details on NASA's Office Staff Plan at:.https://www.nasa.gov/commercialcrew.- end-.Joshua Finch/ Claire O'SheaHeadquarters, Washington202-358-1100joshua.a.finch@nasa.gov/ claire.a.o'shea@nasa.gov.Raegan ScharfetterJohnson Space Center, Houston281-910-4989raegan.r.scharfetter@nasa.gov.
