I didn’t see the word moonshot used anywhere. However, I think the “moonshot” concept is improving, and attempting, many different ideas and techniques over the next 25 years. I looked up the original moonshot announcement: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/02/02/fact-sheet-president-biden-reignites-cancer-moonshot-to-end-cancer-as-we-know-it/ https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases...

While it’s not in the ARPA-H announcement, the broader press coverage is using the moonshot frame. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/13/us/politics/biden-research-cancer-moonshot.html https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/13/us/politics/biden-researc...

  It's part of the cancer moonshot announced near the end of the Obama administration and headed by then-VP Biden after his son died of cancer. This is just one small funding part of that broader effort.
