After overnight data showed an interruption in helium flow in the SLS interim cryogenic propulsion stage, teams are troubleshooting and preparing for a likely rollback of Artemis II to the VAB at @NASAKennedy. This will almost assuredly impact the March launch window. @NASA will continue to provide updates as they become available.

I had the pleasure of visiting Mission Control at Johnson Space Center during the Crew-11 reentry and splashdown operation. The flight controllers, alongside the rest of the NASA team and our partners, represent the most accomplished space agency in the world. When exploring the unknown, we prepare for the unexpected and the teams executed professionally. We can bring our astronauts home at virtually any time and pull forward the next mission as necessary. We will always debrief and capture lessons learned, but I am incredibly proud of the team. This is 'tough and competent'. This is NASA at its finest. Next up: Crew-12 and Artemis II.

Five years later, the attack on the Capitol on January 6th, 2021, remains a stain on our nation's history. It was an assault on the very foundation of our democracy – the right for Americans to choose their leaders. It should be a lasting reminder that we cannot take America for granted. Now more than ever, it's important that all Americans stand together to protect and strengthen our democracy.

Senator Mark Kelly@SenMarkKelly·
Over twenty-five years in the U.S. Navy, thirty-nine combat missions, and four missions to space, I risked my life for this country and to defend our Constitution – including the First Amendment rights of every American to speak out. I never expected that the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense would attack me for doing exactly that. My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. I got shot at. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission while my wife Gabby recovered from a gunshot wound to the head– all while proudly wearing the American flag on my shoulder. Generations of servicemembers have made these same patriotic sacrifices for this country, earning the respect, appreciation, and rank they deserve. Pete Hegseth wants to send the message to every single retired servicemember that if they say something he or Donald Trump doesn’t like, they will come after them the same way. It’s outrageous and it is wrong. There is nothing more un-American than that. If Pete Hegseth, the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in our country’s history, thinks he can intimidate me with a censure or threats to demote me or prosecute me, he still doesn’t get it. I will fight this with everything I’ve got — not for myself, but to send a message back that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump don’t get to decide what Americans in this country get to say about their government.

This Hispanic Heritage Month may not have felt the same for a lot of folks as Trump continues trying to inject fear into Latino communities and target hardworking people who have built their lives in this country. These communities are resilient. And now more than ever, it’s important to stand with them in the face of this administration's attacks.
