Story Brief

WASHINGTON — NASA is halting plans to develop the lunar Gateway and instead focusing on the development of a lunar base.

During an event at NASA Headquarters March 24, agency officials outlined major changes to its Artemis lunar architecture, including plans to spend $20 billion over seven years on a lunar base.

"Starting today, we're building humanity's first deep space outpost," said Carlos Garcia-Galan, program executive for NASA's moon base effort.
