NASA on Tuesday revealed the four-person roster for Artemis III, the next mission in the space agency's quest to return humans to the Moon's surface.
Why it matters: Artemis III will involve key tests of one or both lunar landers from SpaceX and Blue Origin, in Earth orbit — similar to Apollo 9 before Apollo 11's historic Moon landing.
