- NASA has planned to send first woman to moon in 2024 in its ambitious plan named Artemis.

- ARTEMIS stands for Acceleration, Reconnection, Turbulence and Electrodynamics of the Moon’s Interaction with the Sun.
- Artemis is named after the Greek goddess of the Moon and twin sister of the god Apollo.The Apollo program famously put the first men on the lunar surface in the 1960 and 70s.
