These companies are partners with NASA through the agency’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative. CLPS is the first phase of NASA’s Artemis program, the agency’s initiative to send the first woman and the next man to the Moon.

The goal is to send instruments and science experiments to the surface of the Moon using commercial landers that are developed and operated by private companies.
