SLS in Big Problem! Can NASA use SpaceX Crew Dragon to the Moon...
We’re going back to the Moon.
That’s the promise NASA made with the Artemis program. But while the mission itself is ambitious, the biggest obstacle isn’t the destination—it’s the system they’ve chosen to get there: the Space Launch System (SLS).
With delays, skyrocketing costs, and questions about its long-term sustainability, is there a better way for NASA to reach the Moon?
What if SpaceX’s Dragon variant could be the solution?
Let’s dive into this exciting possibility in today’s episode of Great SpaceX!
SLS in Big Problem! Can NASA use SpaceX Crew Dragon to the Moon...
The day NASA promised humans would return to the Moon is fast approaching. However, the road to achieving that goal is proving more challenging than expected. Problems continue to mount at both NASA and Boeing, and rumors are swirling that the Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion projects could be on the verge of cancellation. If the U.S. wants to return to the Moon before China, a backup plan must be put in place.
One alternative is to leverage SpaceX's proven, reliable launch systems and spacecraft to carry out the mission. However, before NASA can consider using Crew Dragon as a substitute, we need to assess whether it’s truly suited for the task.

Crew Dragon has already established itself as a highly capable spacecraft in low Earth orbit (LEO). Although slightly smaller than Orion, it can still accommodate four astronauts, and SpaceX has stated that it could be configured to carry up to seven. One of Crew Dragon’s standout features is its integrated pusher launch escape system. Unlike traditional capsules that rely on a disposable escape tower, Crew Dragon uses eight SuperDraco engines to rapidly separate from the launch vehicle in case of an emergency.
