The Netherlands has become the 31st country to sign the Artemis Accords, a practical set of principles to guide space exploration cooperation among nations, including those participating in NASA’s Artemis program.

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson welcomed the Netherlands as the newest and 31st member of the Artemis Accords family, and more countries are expected to sign the Artemis accord in the months and years ahead.

NASA established the Artemis Accords in 2020 together with seven other original signatories.
