Practice makes perfect. During #Artemis missions, astronauts will visit the lunar South Pole region, which has never been explored by humans. To prepare for the first lunar polar expedition — which will take place during the Artemis III mission — NASA scientists and engineers will come together near Flagstaff, Arizona for a mission simulation called Joint Extravehicular Activity Test Team Field Test #3 (JETT3) scheduled for Oct. 4-9. The JETT3 team will leverage the location’s unique terrain and geology to conduct simulated moonwalks. The team of scientists, engineers, and field experts simulating #Artemis III moonwalks near Flagstaff, Arizona will include NASAAstronauts Astro_Feustel and Zenanaut. In this image, NASA test engineers wear Atlas mockup spacesuits while practicing sample collection and moonwalking operations during JETT1 in New Mexico to prepare for lunar surface missions.
