Why Nasa Artemis Moon Mission is Getting Delayed Know the reason

The US space agency NASA has been working on the Artemis Mission for many years. Under this, there is a preparation to send a person to the moon once again. In the year 2022, NASA sent the Orion Spacekraft close to the moon under the Artemis Mission. Spacecraft completed the mission in 25 days. However, the crew was not present in it. It was said that the agency has made initial preparations and soon the process of sending humans to the moon will start. Now it seems that the mission is delayed. According to reports, NASA has postponed its early two human being Moon missions for the years 2026 and 2027. The decision has taken place at a time when America’s rival China is also preparing to send its asset to the moon. According to the Spacedotcom report, it is proposed to send three Americans and one Canadian astronaut to the Artemis 2 mission. They will not descend on the moon, only they will return with a circle. The mission is scheduled to be launched in September 2025, but this month NASA announced that it has been postponed to April 2026.

The plan to launch Estronauts on the moon will be up in the Artemis 3 mission, but it too has been postponed by NASA to the end of 2026 or to the middle of 2027.

What is the reason for the delay?

The reason for the delay of the Artimis Mission is being told to the heat shelled of the Orion Spacecraft. It is said to have a problem, which NASA was detected in 2022, when Artemis 1 returned to Earth.

What is the problem in the heat shield?

NASA had stated this month that when the Orion capsule was going inside the atmosphere under the skip entry, the heat accumulated inside the outer layer of the heat shield. This made gases and stuck in the heat shield. This increased the pressure in the shield and caused cracks in the outer layer. NASA says that she does not want to compromise with the safety of Astronauts. Although the Orion Spacekraft will still be used in the Artemis Mission, but another trage would be worked on for the retirement. NASA wants to solve this problem completely by delaying the mission.
