NASA's Artemis program has recently updated its webpages to remove commitments to land the first woman and first person of color on the moon. This change aligns with broader executive orders under the Trump administration that aimed to eliminate diversity-related statements from government websites. The current focus of Artemis III is outlined as sending humans to explore the lunar South Pole, with a planned landing target date in summer 2027. The program is set to proceed with its first crewed flight, Artemis II, in April 2026.
