A Parametric Assessment of Lunar and Mars Ascent Vehicle Synergy
Examines the potential of dual-purposing an ascent vehicle for both Moon and Mars missions. Finds similarities in V, thrust, crew cabin, and power/thermal subsystem requirements. Tighter mass budgets for Mars vs. Moon mission. Potential challenges that need more detailed design and analysis to answer.

Sustaining Presence on the Moon
Artemis is the twin sister of Apollo and goddess of the Moon in Greek mythology. Now, she personifies our path to the Moon as the name of NASA’s program to return astronauts to the lunar surface including the first female on the Moon. When they land, Artemis astronauts will step foot where no human has ever been before: the Moon’s South Pole. With the horizon goal of sending humans to Mars, Artemis begins the next era of exploration.
