Nasa presenterar stegvis plan för mån-bas vid sydpolen

27 maj 2026

Rapporterad av AI

Nasa har presenterat detaljer om en flerårig satsning på att etablera en permanent bas på månen nära dess sydpol. Tillkännagivandet den 26 maj beskrev inledande obemannade uppdrag som startar senare i år.

Myndigheten planerar tre faser som sträcker sig fram till 2036. Den första fasen, som avslutas 2029, fokuserar på att säkerställa tillförlitlig tillgång till månens yta. Den andra fasen siktar på initial operativ förmåga till 2032, följt av konstruktionen av en bas som omfattar hundratals kvadratkilometer i den sista fasen.
