Default Artemis 3 Mission in 2024

Anyone want to predict whether this will actually happen in 2024?
It would be interesting for sure.


It won't happen until China has a man on the moon.

Artemis 3 (previously the Exploration Mission-3 or EM-3), is a planned 2024 flight of NASA's Orion spacecraft to be launched on the Space Launch System. It is planned to be the second crewed mission of the Artemis program and the first crewed lunar landing since Apollo 17 in 1972.
The landing zone would be in the south polar region. It is planned to have two astronauts on the surface of the Moon for about one week.

If weren't for thea Russian Sputnik, would US have a space program?
