The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has announced a one-year delay in landing astronauts on the Moon, to 2025.
The space agency had earlier planned to send astronauts to the Moon by 2024.
NASA itself has stated that the reason for this is the lawsuit brought against the award of this agreement to SpaceX and other reasons.
Under this, NASA is going to land the first woman and 13th man on the surface of the Moon.
America is the only country in the world that has landed humans on the Moon, and for the first time since 1972, America will again bring humans to the Moon.
NASA will send the first woman and 13th man to the Moon under the ‘Artemis Mission’.
