Artemis Project We're going back to the Moon!

A unique Internet-based project for a commercially funded manned lunar base as a springboard to

building a lunar tourism industry. Wanna work on a space project? Help is required, and you don't have

to be a rocket scientist to take part! We do have a prescence in the UK, and this is probably the most exciting

and realistic of all the non-government-funded schemes around. We will not be building rockets- people cracked that

technical problem 30 years ago. This project is more akin to building an airline from scratch.
