JAKARTA NASA managed to attract a new country to support its lunar exploration project. On May 15, Norway officially joined the Artemis Agreement.
The Artemis Agreement is an international agreement agreed before, at the moment, and after the Artemis mission was underway. This agreement is based on space rules to rescue agreements and instrument returns.
Countries supporting NASA’s lunar exploration project must sign the Artemis Agreement. This is done as a form of responsibility for a sustainable space mission.
Therefore, with Norway joining the Artemis Agreement, the country has agreed to support safe lunar exploration. They are also committed to peaceful and transparent space exploration.
“We are grateful for the strong and meaningful collaboration we have established with the Norwegian Space Agency,” said NASA Administrator Janet Petro. “Norway not only supports the exploration future, but also helps us define it.”
The Norwegian side who signed the agreement was Cecilia Myrseth, Norwegian Minister of Trade and Industry. The contract signing ceremony was held at the Norwegian Space Agency (NOSA) with the Director General of NOSA Christian Hauglie-Hanssen.
“We are pleased to be part of the Artemis Agreement,” Myrseth said. This is an important step to allow Norway to contribute to broader international cooperation to ensure the peaceful exploration and use of space.
