The launch team at @NASAKennedy are GO to begin filling the Artemis II rocket with fuel. The official launch broadcast begins at 12:50pm ET (1650 UTC). Liftoff is scheduled for no earlier than 6:24 pm ET (2224 UTC). Tanking coverage can be found here: youtube.com/live/m3kR2KK8T…

When the four astronauts part of the Artemis II crew launch into space, they'll have a plush toy called Rise with them for their moon mission. CBS News' Mark Strassmann explains why.

The four-person Artemis II crew is preparing to lift off and travel around the moon as early as Wednesday, after NASA delayed the launch in February due to a helium flow issue. It will be the first crewed lunar mission in over half a century. The roughly 10-day journey will take them farther than any humans have ever been in space.

Happy Opening Day today to the rest of us! Baseball is back with one big rule change: the ABS challenge
