Why would we try and nail and get all of that perfect today when we haven't been to the moon in more than a half century?
So phase one will be a lot of landings, again, that near monthly cadence to learn and inform phase two, where perhaps now you're putting a lot more tonnage on the lunar surface.
You have a lot more direction as to the type of hardware and capabilities you want to lock in on.
So you don't need to have maybe monthly landings when we get into phase two,
but you have a lot more direction as to what should work for our intended objectives, which is to build out that habitable environment.
And then phase two, we're going to learn now having astronauts go from, let's call it a period of maybe even days on the lunar surface in phase one to potentially weeks in phase two to where you might get, by the time we move into phase three, a similar astronaut rotation like you see on the International Space Station where we could have crews potentially being on the lunar surface for months on end.
Oh, we absolutely have timeframes.
I mean, we are looking at basically 2027 through 2029 for phase one.
You have 2029 out into the early 2030s for phase two.
But again, this is all going to be informed on what we learn during those first landings in phase one.
You know, we have a plan, which is really good.
uh but we are gonna learn and we're gonna learn from every one of our robotic missions every lander that we put on the moon to inform the next there is a world we could pull in time frames and i was just talking with our moon base team on that just a week or two ago uh you may not need 20 some odd uh you know landings uh under phase one in order to get the uh in order to make determinations as to what the the early phase two habitation and power and and mobility considerations should look like so
I would say we're extremely focused on the mission of making sure when American astronauts return to the lunar surface, there's going to be infrastructure there and to evolve into that enduring presence to master the skills for where we go next, which is Mars.
We have a great timeline.
It's very well resourced, and we certainly have the best and brightest at NASA working on it.
We'll adjust those timelines as we learn.
Well, I would just say we have a lot of industry that's very excited to participate right now.
So we put a heck of a demand signal out to industry during the ignition event.
There were a lot of bidders across the landers, across the rovers.
The Blue Origin Mark I is extremely useful for us in terms of the amount of mass it can put on the lunar surface.
