美国宇航局通过PRISM计划选定了三项科学调查任务，为建立首个月球基地奠定基础。1这些任务将通过商业月球有效载荷服务（CLPS）计划运送至月球表面，为宇航员的长期居住和未来前往火星的任务提供科学支撑。1
其中，由马里兰大学巴尔的摩郡分校的Mehdi Benna博士领导的LEMS-SP任务将监测微陨石、挥发物和月震等环境威胁。1行星科学研究所的Nathaniel Putzig博士主持的GIMLI任务计划调查Marius Hills坑洞，以确认是否连接到大型地下熔岩管，这些洞穴可作为宇航员的庇护所。1NASA艾姆斯研究中心的Ariel Deutsch博士领导的DISCO任务将对月球表面微冷陷阱中的冰进行直接测量，以探测月球水冰资源。1
NASA has selected three scientific investigation missions to prepare for the establishment of its first lunar base.1 These missions will be delivered to the Moon's surface through the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program as part of NASA's PRISM initiative.1
The GIMLI mission will investigate a pit in the Marius Hills region to determine whether it connects to a large underground lava tube, according to research led by Nathaniel Putzig of the Planetary Science Institute.1 Such subsurface cavities could potentially serve as shelters for astronauts.1 Meanwhile, the DISCO mission will conduct direct measurements of ice within micro-cold traps on the lunar surface, under the direction of Ariel Deutsch at NASA's Ames Research Center.1 A third mission, LEMS-SP, will monitor environmental hazards including micrometeorites, volatile substances, and moonquakes, led by Mehdi Benna of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.1 Together, these investigations will provide fundamental scientific support for sustained human presence on the Moon and lay the groundwork for future missions to Mars.1
