These artist's concepts show SpaceX's Starship Human Landing System (HLS) in operation on its journey to the Moon. Before astronauts launch in NASA's Orion spacecraft atop the agency's SLS (Space Launch System) rocket, SpaceX will launch a storage depot to Earth orbit. For Artemis III and Artemis IV, SpaceX plans to complete propellant loading operations in Earth orbit to send a fully fueled Starship HLS to the Moon. Starship HLS will then dock directly to Orion so that two astronauts can transfer from the spacecraft to the lander to descend to the Moon's surface, while two others remain in Orion. Beginning with Artemis IV, NASA's Gateway lunar space station will serve as the crew transfer point.
