NASA proposal for lunar lander

NASA is seeking proposals for sustainable lunar lander development and demonstration as it works toward a regular schedule of Moon landings. Through the Artemis missions, NASA is preparing to return humans to the Moon for long-term scientific discovery and exploration. Under the solicitation, Human Landing System Sustaining Lunar Development, NASA has provided requirements for companies interested in developing and demonstrating astronaut Moon landers. Companies selected will be required to perform one uncrewed and one crewed lunar landing demonstration. The final call for proposals comes after NASA incorporated industry feedback on the draft solicitation, released March 31. NASA’s current contract with SpaceX includes both an uncrewed and a crewed lunar landing demonstration that is part of the Artemis III mission, marking humanity’s first return to the Moon in more than 50 years. Proposals for the sustainable lunar lander development and demonstration are due Nov. 15.
