Artemis Accords

The Artemis Accords are a set of agreements initiated by NASA in 2020 to establish guidelines for international cooperation in lunar and space exploration. Named after NASA's Artemis program, which aims to return humans to the Moon by the mid-2020s, the Accords promote peaceful exploration, responsible conduct, and sustainability in outer space. They encourage signatory nations to share data, avoid harmful interference, and protect space heritage. By fostering collaboration and transparency, the Artemis Accords aim to ensure that space exploration benefits all humanity while minimizing risks and conflicts among nations.
