Russia and the US are creating a lunar orbital station called Deep Space Gateway which could allow humans to reach out further into the universe than ever before.

The habitat will orbit around the moon and will open up opportunities to explore deep space, as well as a return to the moon and missions to Mars.

The first modules of the station will be completed as soon as 2024 with construction starting in 2022.

China and India as well as other members of the BRICS Nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) may join.

This announcement brings a long-standing concept to reality after plans were first made public in Spring 2016.

The Deep Space Gateway will be launched using Nasa's Space Launch System (SLS) in 2022.



The Gateway will use a system similar to the one which allows commercial vehicles to dock with the International Space Station.

This would allow the Deep Space Transport vehicle - which will take humans to Mars - to dock with the Gateway.

But what about the Russians hacking? They are evil right? At least according to the Soros and MSM.

Jokes aside this is fantastic news. Space is too magnificent for small human politics. This is where we as a species need to work together
