NASA, together with private contractors Blue Origin and SpaceX, has decided to optimize the development of crewed landing modules intended for future lunar missions. The companies have reviewed engineering solutions and operational concepts for their landing systems to accelerate readiness for planned flights. Since the initial contracts with Blue Origin and SpaceX were concluded, NASA has continued work on establishing long-term human presence on the Moon under the Artemis program. Simplifying the designs of landing vehicles is seen as a way to reduce technical risks and shorten development timelines for the complex systems necessary to safely deliver astronauts to the lunar surface and ensure their subsequent return. Both companies—SpaceX with its Starship vehicle modification and Blue Origin with its Blue Moon apparatus—are working on creating systems capable of withstanding extended mission conditions and ensuring reliable crew landing. Changes in operational concepts also address logistics, in-space refueling, and interaction with other elements of NASA's lunar infrastructure, including the Gateway lunar orbit station. NASA's goal is to ensure technology readiness by 2028, when the next crewed lunar missions are scheduled. The agency emphasizes that collaboration with private companies allows for risk distribution and accelerates the implementation of innovative solutions necessary for sustainable Moon exploration and preparation for future Mars missions.
