to explore farther from Earth. Astronauts living in space aboard the orbiting laboratory communicate with NASA’s Mission Control Center in Houston 24 hours a day through the Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN)
Near Space Network. Important research and technology investigations taking place aboard the International Space Station benefits people on Earth and lays the groundwork
for future exploration. As part of Artemis,
NASA will send astronauts to the Moon to prepare for future human exploration of Mars. Inspiring the next generation of explorers – the Artemis Generation – ensures America will continue to lead in space exploration and discovery.
