A new document by the International Space Exploration Coordination Group (ISECG) spotlights the future of Moon exploration as one scenario with three phases:
- Phase 1: Boots on the Moon
- Phase 2: Expanding and Building
- Phase 3: Sustained Lunar Opportunities
A Global Exploration Roadmap (GER) supplement updates a 2018 report, reflecting the activities of several new ISECG space organizations that have set new national priorities and intensified and accelerated lunar exploration plans. All this activity extends and refines the ISECG Lunar Surface Exploration Scenario, the document explains.

Coordination forum
The ISECG is a voluntary, non-binding coordination forum of space agencies. Since the 2018 GER release, the number of ISECG agencies has increased from 15 to 24.
The supplement is divided into five chapters that highlight the growing global momentum in exploring the Moon. Chapters update lunar exploration plans, objectives, and scenarios, as well as noting the increasing industrial capabilities to augment Moon exploration within the private sector.
