PLEASE HELP ASAP Read the excerpt from Moon Mission.
Gateway will allow astronauts to explore more of the moon than Apollo ever could. Apollo flew a circular path around it, staying about 60 miles away. It could land only near the moon’s equator. Gateway will travel in an egg-shaped orbit, between 1,200 and 47,000 miles from the moon’s surface. Astronauts will pick their landing spot. They’ll simply adjust Gateway’s orbit to fly over that spot and take the landing vehicle down.

What central idea is supported by the important details in the excerpt?
A. Gateway and Apollo have similar orbits.
B. Gateway and Apollo can land near the moon’s equator.
C. Gateway was designed to be much like Apollo.
D. Gateway is more advanced than Apollo.
