He further said: "This time, when we go to the Moon, we're actually going to stay. We're not going to leave flags and footprints and then come home to not go back for another 50 years".
Explaining his plans he said: 'We're doing it entirely different than every other country in the world. What we're doing is, we're making it sustainable so you can go back and forth regularly with humans.

NASA has plans to build a small space station dubbed Gateway in moon’s orbit by 2026. It will serve as a way-station for trips to and from the lunar surface.
Along with ISS, NASA would seek participation of other countries as well, who can provide them some help like: modules for the Moon station or vehicles to allow landings on the surface.

Before this program, NASA is also pushing to send scientific instruments and other technological tools to the Moon in 2020.
Associate administrator of NASA's Science Mission Directorate said: 'We do not expect that every one of those launches or every one of those landings will be successful. We are taking risks.'

Let’s see when this mission will be accomplished.
