In the 1960’s the race to be the first nation on the moon was all important. Things have changed over the many decades since the Apollo era. More countries are racing to explore and even benefit from the Moon. Federal and private ventures are breaking borders by collaborating on research programs to explore Earth's natural satellite and the solar system at large. But what are the newest breakthroughs and what does the future hold space exploration?
