Blast off into the future of space exploration with the next installment of the Cygnus Virtual Lecture Series. Join Solar System Ambassador Elaine Fortin for an engaging presentation on NASA’s Artemis Program and humanity’s exciting return to the moon.

Following the April 1, 2026 launch of the 10-day Artemis II mission—the first crewed mission of the Artemis era—this talk will explore how NASA is leading a new chapter in lunar exploration as a stepping stone to Mars.

Learn how today’s space race has evolved beyond the Apollo era, with international agencies and private partners now playing major roles in shaping the future of exploration.

From the moon to Mars, there’s a lot to discuss—and it starts with Artemis. Don’t miss this fascinating virtual event.
