Nasa’s Moon rocket Artemis rolls back to pad for possible April launch
Nasa’s Artemis moon rocket is set to roll back out to its launch pad at Kennedy Space Center for final testing, ahead of a possible launch in April. The Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft will undergo tests to prepare for the uncrewed Artemis I mission around the moon.
Nasa’s acting administrator, Steve Jurczyk, stated that the agency is excited to be on the verge of testing this new system, which aims to land the first woman and the next man on the moon. He mentioned that the Artemis program is critical for the future of crewed space exploration beyond low Earth orbit.
The Artemis I mission was initially slated for a 2020 launch but has faced multiple delays, including technical issues and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The Artemis program aims to establish a sustainable human presence on the moon by the end of the decade, in preparation for future crewed missions to Mars.
The rollout of the Artemis rocket marks a significant milestone in Nasa’s plans to return humans to the moon and beyond, pushing the boundaries of space exploration once again.
