Location: Hall 4 - Space Zone Theatre
Hear from the Science Museum on why, after more than 50 years, we are now choosing to go back to the Moon; about what we learnt and gained from the Apollo missions and their relevance to Artemis today. Explore whether there is a new space race, about commercial input from SpaceX and Blue Origin, and about who actually owns space. Find out about what resources are on the Moon, how to build a permanent Moonbase, and our ambition for Mars. And, of course, learn about the science of Artemis and about how you too, may one day take your own lunar selfie.
