How NASA Plans To Build The First Moon Space Station

By now, multiple Gateway station segments are nearing completion in preparation for launch. With NASA planning to return to the Moon and for good, Gateway is supposed to play a crucial role in facilitating future Artemis missions. However, this brings up the question of what progress has been made and when will it be complete. Gateway is a joint effort between NASA and a few other agencies. On top of that, contributors such as NASA have contracted some of the work out to Northrop Grumman among other companies. Everyone involved has either a dedicated module, or some sort of addition. All of which need to work together and be ready by a set time if the station wants to be fully operational in the coming years. Currently, if everything stays on schedule, between 2024 and 2031, the Gateway lunar space station will be built out and then complete, ready to transfer astronauts and supplies from the lunar surface to Earth and back. Here I will go more in-depth into the future timeline of Gateway, recent progress that’s been made, what to expect in the coming weeks, and more.
