Dear children,

The Artemis mission is getting ready as we speak! A huge rocket will be launched into space. It will carry the Orion Spacecraft. The spacecraft will orbit around the moon a few times, take some photos and then, will return to Earth. 

 A great number of scientists around the world work together to prepare the Artemis mission. For example:

                              What?

  Is there going to be a crew of astronauts in the spacecraft?

Well, not this time! But next time the spacecraft will be crewed. These astronauts are already receiving training. Some scientists carry out experiments with gravity to find the best way to send the rocket and the spacecraft to the Moon and back.*

So, the Artemis mission will launch in May. There will be no astronauts in the spacecraft this time, but the spacecraft will carry d flash drive with names. These will be the names of all people who want to learn more about the Moon and the Artemis mission.

We have already included the name of your school on the flash drive that will fly aboard Artemis I. However, we would like to send all your names on the flash drive, but for this, you will need complete successfully some training. That is, you will have to learn some of what scientists know about Space.

All children who complete their training will be invited to add their name on the drive and get their individual boarding pass. And then... your name will fly around the Moon!

Who are we? We are a team, a group of friends, who had a bright idea!

We want to guide you and help you become When you grow up, scientists of the Earth Our and Space. We will show you what you need to know... 

To show us that you are willing to take part in this training, we would like you to sign your individual application and send it to us.

Once you complete your training, we will award you a certificate and a boarding pass for Artemis mission. But the most important thing will be that you will send your name to fly around the Moon!

         We are waiting for your reply!
