    Gateway will be an assembly of elements in lunar orbit with capabilities to advance deep space exploration. It will serve as a unifying catalyst for international partners to establish deep space scientific investigations, long term lunar surface access & missions to Mars.

    How does the Gateway compare in size to the @Space_Station? The Gateway is about one-sixth the size of the ISS and can support four crew members for 30 – 60 days while @NASA_Orion spacecraft is docked.

    Christmas came early for the Gateway Program! 🎁 #ICYMI: The Habitation and Logistics Outpost mockup was delivered to @NASA_Johnson earlier this week, where @NASAArtemis astronauts will train for future missions to deep space. Learn more about HALO: go.nasa.gov/3WlDpzx

    Gateway is coming together🤩 Following structural welding, the Habitation and Logistics Outpost (HALO) module will ship from Italy to Gilbert, Arizona, where @northropgrumman will outfit various components to support future @NASAArtemis missions.
    Inside of a bright industrial building with a fluorescent blue floor, a massive metal cylinder with an open port where a spaceship or lunar module will one day dock is shown in its fabrication stage. The metal cylinder is built for astronauts to live and work on the Gateway space station that will one day orbit the Moon.
    Inside of a bright industrial building with a fluorescent blue floor, a massive, open metal ring rests on a white metal support structure that is clearly holding it upright. Above and behind the metal ring on the right hangs a European Union flag, as this industrial facility is located in Turin, Italy. The ring is shown in its fabrication stage and is being built for the Gateway space station that will one day orbit the Moon, and where astronauts will live and work

    The Moon before Mars! The Gateway, an outpost orbiting the Moon, will be a staging point for human and robotic exploration in deep space that will serve as a technology test bed for Mars. #ObserveTheMoon
