NASA has identified 13 regions near the south pole of the Moon where the Artemis III mission could land. The final landing spot is still being decided, based on illumination, visibility, communication with Earth, and more. Researchers have identified 1,247 potential landing sites in the zones and rated each one based on NASA criteria. They believe they've found the perfect spot, which meets NASA's requirements and can maximize the science return.
