NASA's Artemis III mission landed astronauts on the lunar surface near the south pole in 2025, marking humanity's first crewed lunar landing since Apollo 17 in December 1972. The mission included the first woman and first person of color to walk on the Moon. Using SpaceX's Starship as the lunar lander, the crew collected ice-bearing regolith samples from permanently shadowed craters, advancing preparations for a permanent lunar outpost.
