Nur wenige Tage nach der SLS-Einführung finden Sie hier das neueste Update für die Artemis-2-Mission der NASA | Da der Start möglicherweise nur noch drei Wochen entfernt ist, arbeitet die Agentur unermüdlich daran, die SLS-Rakete, das Orion-Raumschiff und die Artemis-2-Besatzung startbereit zu machen.

>It’s official: NASA plans to roll its Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft out to the launch pad on Saturday. The move will signal the final stage of preparation for the Artemis 2 mission, which will send astronauts beyond Earth’s orbit and around the Moon for the first time since the Apollo era.

>In a Friday update, NASA said it could take up to 12 hours for the SLS to complete the 4-mile (6.4-kilometer) journey from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at Kennedy Space Center to Launch Pad 39B. Teams are working 24/7 to complete the necessary tasks ahead of rollout, but it could be pushed back if they need more time for technical preparations or if the weather interferes.

>“We have important steps remaining on our path to launch and crew safety will remain our top priority at every turn, as we near humanity’s return to the Moon,” Lori Glaze, acting associate administrator for NASA’s Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate, said in the statement.

>If the agency can complete these steps without any major complications, Artemis 2 could launch as soon as February 6. Here are the latest mission developments and everything that still needs to happen before liftoff.
