航空宇宙局 計画（する）s to send a 乗組員を乗せた 使節団 to 火星 in the 2030s after first 上陸 on the Moon
火星 has become the next 巨大（な） leap for mankind's 探検 of space.
But before humans get to the red 惑星, 宇宙飛行士s will take a 一連の small steps by returning to the moon for a year-long 使節団.
詳細（に述べる）s of a the 使節団 in lunar 軌道 have been 明かすd as part of a timeline of events 主要な to 使節団s to 火星 in the 2030s.
Nasa has 輪郭（を描く）d its?four 行う／開催する／段階 計画（する） (pictured) which it hopes will one day 許す h umans to visit 火星 at?he Humans to 火星 首脳会議 held in Washington DC yesterday. This will entail 多重の 使節団s to the moon over coming １０年間s
In May 2017, Greg Williams, 副 associate 行政官／管理者 for 政策 and 計画（する）s at Nasa, 輪郭（を描く）d the space 機関's four 行う／開催する／段階 計画（する） that it hopes will one day 許す humans to visit 火星, 同様に as its 推定する／予想するd time-でっちあげる，人を罪に陥れる.
段階 one and two?will 伴う／関わる 多重の trips to lunar space, to 許す for construction of a habitat which will 供給する a 行う／開催する／段階ing area for the 旅行.
The last piece of 配達するd 金物類／武器類 would be the actual 深い Space 輸送（する） 乗り物 that would later be used to carry a 乗組員 to 火星.?
