SpaceX imadziwika chifukwa chokhazikitsa bwino komanso kutera, ndipo tsopano yapambananso mgwirizano wina wapamwamba kwambiri kuchokera ku NASA.Bungweli lidasankha Elon Musk's Rocket Company kuti itumize magawo oyambilira a gawo lake lomwe lakhala likuyembekezeredwa kwanthawi yayitali mumlengalenga.
The Gateway amaonedwa kuti ndi malo oyamba kwa nthawi yayitali kwa anthu pa mwezi, womwe ndi malo ang'onoang'ono apamlengalenga.Koma mosiyana ndi International Space Station, yomwe imazungulira dziko lapansi motsika kwambiri, chipatacho chidzazungulira Mwezi.Ithandizira ntchito yomwe ikubwera ya astronaut, yomwe ndi gawo la ntchito ya NASA ya Artemis, yomwe imabwerera kumtunda wa mwezi ndikukhazikitsa kukhalapo kosatha kumeneko.
Mwachindunji, SpaceX Falcon Heavy Rocket System idzayambitsa zida zamagetsi ndi zoyendetsa (PPE) ndi Habitat ndi Logistics Base (HALO), zomwe ndi mbali zazikulu za portal.
HALO ndi malo okhalamo opanikizika omwe adzalandira okonda zakuthambo.PPE ndi yofanana ndi ma mota ndi makina omwe amasunga chilichonse chikuyenda.NASA ikulongosola kuti ndi "chombo choyendera dzuwa cha 60-kilowatt-class chomwe chidzapereka mphamvu, mauthenga othamanga kwambiri, kuwongolera maganizo, ndi luso losuntha doko kupita kumayendedwe osiyanasiyana a mwezi."
Falcon Heavy ndi kasinthidwe kolemetsa kwa SpaceX, kopangidwa ndi zida zitatu za Falcon 9 zomangidwa pamodzi ndi gawo lachiwiri komanso zolipira.
Chiyambireni mu 2018, Tesla wa Elon Musk adawulukira ku Mars pachiwonetsero chodziwika bwino, Falcon Heavy yangowuluka kawiri.Falcon Heavy ikukonzekera kukhazikitsa ma satellite ankhondo kumapeto kwa chaka chino, ndikuyambitsa ntchito ya NASA ya Psyche mu 2022.
Pakadali pano, Lunar Gateway's PPE ndi HALO idzakhazikitsidwa kuchokera ku Kennedy Space Center ku Florida mu Meyi 2024.
