Washington [US], April 10 (ANI): The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will land the first person of colour on the moon as part of an international spaceflight program called Artemis, according to the US space agency.
Taking a giant step for diversity, the Biden-Harris Administration seeks to land the first woman and the next man on the lunar South Pole by 2024.
On Friday the administration submitted US President Joe Biden's priorities for 2022 discretionary spending to Congress. "This goal aligns with President Biden's commitment to pursue a comprehensive approach to advancing equity for all," said acting NASA Administrator Steve Jurczyk.
