Artemis III missionArs Technica
•75% Informative
NASA engineer Catherine Koerner praises SpaceX's test flight of SpaceX's Starship rocket and booster.
She was speaking at a meeting of the Space Studies Board at the end of last week's flight.
She praised the "incredible" video of the rocket and its booster returning to Earth , with each making a soft landing.
NASA and SpaceX are planning for the possibility of modifying the Artemis III mission.
A modified mission would essentially be a repeat of the Apollo 9 mission, buying down risk.
The "prop transfer demo" is a fairly complex mission that involves the launch of a "Starship target" from the Starbase facility in South Texas .
If SpaceX completes this test during the first quarter of 2025 , NASA will at least theoretically have a path forward to a crewed lunar landing in 2026 .
