NASA wants to get humans back on the Moon by 2024. It’s an incredibly ambitious goal and there’s plenty of skepticism in the scientific community and abroad that the space agency can actually pull it off. If NASA has any hope of achieving the incredible milestone it’s going to need a lot of help from commercial partners. To that end, the space agency just announced a trio of new deals with US companies to help get astronaut boots on lunar soil.
The three companies SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Dynetics. Now, you may not have heard of Dynetics before, but the other two companies are practically household names at this point. In a new news release, NASA describes what each company will be doing to help make the goal of crewed missions to the Moon a reality once more.
