In 2025, several significant space missions are scheduled that promise to expand our understanding of the universe. NASA's Artemis III mission aims to return humans to the Moon, focusing on the lunar South Pole to explore potential water ice deposits. The European Space Agency (ESA) will launch the PLATO mission to study exoplanets, particularly those in habitable zones around sun-like stars. Additionally, the James Webb Space Telescope will continue its operations, potentially unveiling more about the early universe and exoplanet atmospheres. Russia's Luna 27 mission will investigate the Moon's south pole for resources, while China's Chang'e 7 will also target the lunar south pole, focusing on water-ice exploration. These missions collectively represent a global effort to deepen our knowledge of space, from our closest celestial neighbor to distant planets, highlighting a year of significant scientific advancement in space exploration.
