NASA’s Artemis Launch Delayed By At Least A Month

After scrapping its first two launch attempts due to technical issues, NASA has delayed its Artemis SLS launch for at least a month – if not more.

NASA has decided not to make any further attempts during the current launch window, which ends Tuesday.

Any further attempts will likely be delayed by “at least several weeks”, according to CNN.

The test launch of the SLS megarocket is a key step in NASA’s Artemis program, which seeks to put humans on the moon by the year 2025.

Ground teams at Kennedy Space Center prepared on Saturday for a second try at launching NASA’s towering, next-generation moon rocket on its debut flight, hoping to have remedied engineering problems that foiled the initial countdown five days ago.https://t.co/Nk7eJtl4FM
