  NASA Lands Astronauts on the Moon Again

  Launch Complex 39B, Kennedy Space Center, FLNASA

  

  开始于 2029/12/31预估可信度 66%3.3年后No landing date is set. The market’s heaviest year is 2029, which carries about 31 of the 44 points priced before 2030 (13% before 2029 rising to 44% before 2030), and a year-only date takes its last day. The 2027 and 2028 rungs are thinly traded and add under 3 points between them. The figures are the chance in the strike list; the order ticket reads 49% for the same before-2030 contract.^[1]
