No women on Artemis III? Nasa faces criticism over all-male Moon mission crew

 NASA faces criticism for selecting an all-male crew for the upcoming Artemis III mission, despite the program’s stated commitment to diversity. While the agency defends the choice based on mission requirements and astronaut expertise, critics argue it undermines the goal of landing the first woman on the Moon. The mission itself is a crucial test phase for future lunar landings, not a landing mission. NASA faces criticism for selecting an all-male crew for the upcoming Artemis III mission, despite the program’s stated commitment to diversity.
