“A Japanese citizen will be the first non-American astronaut to land on the moon”

The European space agency has not had good news these days or things have not gone very well, because last Wednesday something not very good happened for the European space agency, it turns out that on April 10 NASA published a statement announcing that President Biden and Prime Minister Kishida of Japan announced that literally “a Japanese citizen will be the first non-American astronaut to land on the moon” in the reconquest of the Moon.

The statement is a bit adventurous, because what will happen if it gets ahead of China, because if there are no more delays than there may be, we will have the Artemis 3 mission in September 2026, that is the mission where we could see humans again on the surface of the moon, there would be two and also Americans in principle and textually, NASA's objective is to "take the first woman, the first person of color and its first international associate astronaut to the moon." In this era things are like this, I don't set the rules, that's what NASA says, I think the most appropriate people should go, I wouldn't care if they were all black or all women, I think they are secondary things They must be the right people, anyone regardless of their race, color or sex or whatever you want, regardless of a person who passes the tests, if they try hard, they should have the opportunity to travel to the moon or do whatever they want. What you can do based on what you have studied and have worked hard for and have the ability to do it, I am in favor of opening opportunities to everything. Personally, I don't understand color very well, we all have some color, but, anyway, sooner or later there will be several astronauts who are not Americans, not only Japanese, but Europeans, there is also an agreement with Canada and Australia, we will see them there on the moon, it is possible that the Japanese presence will be the Artemis 7 mission, which would be in 2031 since it is intended to take the first pressurized Rover to the lunar surface, it will be made in Japan, it will be a Toyota and I find it great.

This is the vehicle, it would allow astronauts to travel, carry out explorations, analyzes and move through various areas, it would be a mobile habitat, it would be like a camper van but in space, it would also have laboratory equipment so that the astronauts could work doing analyzes and it would have the capacity to house two astronauts for up to 30 days and according to Toyota it would have the capacity to move up to 10,000 km by recharging the batteries and would run on hydrogen.
