NASA plans to launch its Space Launch System rocket on 29 August for the Artemis I mission around the moon. The launch video will be available here
SLS is the most powerful rocket ever built. It has faced numerous delays since the project began in 2011, but it has finally rolled out to the launch pad and is ready for liftoff. Its mission, called Artemis I, will last 42 days and is the beginning of NASA’s programme to send humans back to the surface of the moon.
The Artemis I launch is scheduled for 29 August between 8.33am and 10.33am EDT . A livestream of the launch will be available on this page above. If any issues delay the mission, there are backup launch dates on 2 and 5 September.If all goes well with Artemis I, the Artemis II mission planned for 2024 will be SLS and Orion’s first crewed flight. That flight is planned to last only about 10 days, taking a crew of four astronauts on a flight past the moon but not landing.
