[00:00:00]NASA is taking its next big step toward building a permanent base on the moon.

[00:00:04]The agency announced plans for three uncrewed missions to the moon later this year.

[00:00:09]Those missions will test new technology, scout locations near the moon's South Pole, and deliver scientific equipment to the surface.

[00:00:17]We are leveraging the NASA playbook from the 1960s, figuring out what works and what doesn't in this epic science of survival because the moon base is as beautiful as it is hostile.

[00:00:30]And NASA says it hopes to begin building a moon base by 2029.
