NASA has announced a new generation of astronauts to help establish a permanent human presence on the Moon, with applications open until December 4. The agency is looking for candidates who could eventually live and work at its planned Moon Base, support missions under its Artemis programme and help develop the technology and experience needed to send humans to Mars. The next class of astronauts will train for increasingly challenging missions, including operations on the lunar surface. The agency expects to announce its final selections in late 2027.
