NASA explains why a Moon Base can't rely on a single rover, habitat or lander

Speaking at the Moon Base event at NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C., Jared Isaacman explained why NASA is moving away from relying on a single all-in-one system for future lunar exploration. Instead, the agency is pursuing a step-by-step approach that uses multiple landers, rovers and habitation modules to build a sustainable presence on the Moon under the Artemis program. Companies such as Astrolab, Lunar Outpost, Firefly and Blue Origin are developing key technologies that could support future Moon Base operations, astronaut mobility, logistics and autonomous activities on the lunar surface.
