NASA's Artemis programme has taken a giant leap forward, but also a small step back on its journey towards setting the first woman and first person of colour on the Moon's surface in the next few years.
On 3 April, NASA announced the four crew members who would take part in the Artemis II mission, which is currently scheduled for 2024. The crew will consist of veteran NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch, the latter of whom has already made history by taking part in the first all-female spacewalk alongside Jessica Meir. They will be joined by first-time astronaut Jeremy Hansen from the Canadian Space Agency.

Could We Find Aliens by Looking for Their Solar Panels?- Designed to reflect ultraviolet and infrared, the panels have a unique fingerprint
Researchers searching for life beyond Earth spend a lot of time thinking about what telltale signs might be detectable astronomically. Forms of unambiguous evidence for the presence of life on another world are known as biosignatures. By extension, techno signatures are indicators of activity by intelligent, civilisation-building life.
Antimatter- In our continuing series, Govert Schilling looks at antimatter, the strange counterpart to most of the matter filling our Universe
Particles and corresponding antiparticles are very much alike, except they have opposite electrical charges. For instance, the antiparticle of the electron - known as the positron - has the same tiny mass, but while electrons carry a negative electrical charge, positrons are positively charged.
Where Have All The Milky Way's Early Stars Gone?- Our Galaxy has a curious lack of pristine stars
The Big Bang produced a Universe filled almost exclusively with hydrogen and helium; all other elements - what astronomers call metals - were produced by stars, supernovae and everything that happens later. So if you can pick out a pristine star with no metals polluting it from among the billions in the Milky Way, then you are likely to have a star dating from our Galaxy's earliest days.
