Lunar Gateway space station is an international collaboration led by NASA with Europe, Japan and Canada   Core components will launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket as early as May 2024 for lunar orbit The first components launched for the moon will cover habitation and power with others following in 2026 Astronauts will travel to the moon in the Orion spaceship, dock with the Gateway then two of their number will transfer from the space station to the lunar surface in a SpaceX Starship and remain there for up to a week

autoevolution 7 Apr 2021, 13:56 UTC · by When thinking about spaceships, the general image one gets comes either from the movies you've seen or the books you've read. The reality is that present-day spaceships are not powered by ion, warp or slipstream hardware, and they are not at all spectacular as they move through space. 4 photos But that may change once NASA gets the Gateway space station in orbit around the Moon. Since the construction will have to move on its own volition around the celestial body, it has to be fitted with thrusters, and the technology chosen for this is called ...
