Uncrewed Moon landing
Starship HLS lands on the Moon with no one on board to prove it works.
Planned Before Artemis IV Estimated
Goal
- Land on the Moon and take off again, the test NASA requires before it puts astronauts on board.
The plan
- Several tanker flights refill the lander in Earth orbit.
- The lander flies to the Moon, lands and launches back to lunar orbit.
Future dates come from the launch calendar and are checked every week; they often slip. All Starship missions
