NASA 's Artemis program aims to return humans to the moon for the first time in more than 50 years .
A four -person crewed flight in an Orion spacecraft around the moon and back to Earth is pushed back from September 2025 to April 2026 .
The delay stems from lingering hardware issues with the mission’s Orion spacecraft, the home away from home for its four astronauts.
More than 100 places on Orion craft’s heat shield wore away differently than expected.
This caused pits roughly as wide as baseballs on the surface.
Future heat shields will be built with Avcoat of the proper permeability, NASA officials said.
The investigation represents a swan song for the Biden administration's NASA leadership.
