It outlines a series of ambitious goals, including sending the first humans to Mars by the mid-2030s and establishing a permanent human presence on the Moon. The plan is based on the premise that human space exploration is essential for advancing our scientific knowledge, inspiring the next generation of explorers, and fostering international cooperation.
Navigator 2025 has been praised for its ambitious goals and its focus on human space exploration. However, it has also been criticized for its cost and for its reliance on unproven technologies. Despite these criticisms, Navigator 2025 remains the guiding document for NASA’s human space exploration program.
