What if

With the conclusion of the wet dress rehearsal today, we are moving off the February launch window and targeting March for the earliest possible launch of Artemis II. With more than three years between SLS launches, we fully anticipated encountering challenges. That is precisely why we conduct a wet dress rehearsal. These tests are designed to surface issues before flight and set up launch day with the highest probability of success. During the test, teams worked through a liquid hydrogen leak at a core stage interface during tanking, which required pauses to warm hardware and adjust propellant flow. All core stage and interim cryogenic propulsion stage tanks were successfully filled, and teams conducted a terminal countdown to about T-5 minutes before the ground launch sequencer halted operations due to an increased leak rate. Additional factors included extended Orion closeout work, intermittent ground audio dropouts, and cold-weather impacts to some cameras, along with the successful demonstration of updated Orion closeout purge procedures to support safe crew operations. As always, safety remains our top priority, for our astronauts, our workforce, our systems, and the public. As noted above, we will only launch when we believe we are as ready to undertake this historic mission. This is just the beginning. It marks the start of an Artemis program that will evolve to support repeated and affordable missions to the Moon, in line with President Trump’s national space policy. Getting this mission right means returning to the Moon to stay and a future to Artemis 100 and beyond. I want to thank the talented workforce at NASA, along with our industry and international partners, who are working tirelessly on this effort. The team will fully review the data, troubleshoot each issue encountered during WDR, make the necessary repairs, and return to testing. We expect to conduct an additional wet dress rehearsal and then target the March window. We will continue to keep the public and the media informed as readiness progresses.

Humans for scale

@NASA @NASAArtemis Nice and slow, team. You break it, you buy it.

Our @NASAArtemis Moon rocket's trek to the launch pad began at 7:04am ET (1204 UTC). Crawler-transporter 2 is slowly moving it on top of the mobile launcher, with the four-mile journey expected to take about 12 hours. Watch a live feed of the move: youtube.com/watch?v=nrVnsO…

Starship continues to simultaneously be the fastest path to returning humans to the surface of the Moon and a core enabler of the Artemis program’s goal to establish a permanent, sustainable presence on the lunar surface → #moon-and-beyond" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">spacex.com/updates/#moon-…

If this doesn’t unlock a childhood memory, I feel bad for you

Two Haven-1 primary structures, the qualification and flight article, side by side at Vast headquarters in Long Beach, California. All built in-house. 🇺🇸 Vast is bringing space station development back to the U.S., to launch the world’s first commercial space station and ensure a continuous American presence in low-Earth orbit.

@MoonManX22 Congrats man! You and the team are doing a great job!

That’s what I do!!!! That’s where I work! So happy to share it with the world!!!

@AntipartyGG Its pure cocain for the brain

got this game yesterday btw

@AntipartyGG We... must....boooonnkkk

just played megabonk for like 8 hours straight.... its so PEAK

@MiltyTheGreat @TattedTizzy Golden eye was my jam, I am so down to play this

@TattedTizzy @PRJCTMARS now THIS is what we gotta check out

@TattedTizzy @scubaryan_ 😂😂 classic

@scubaryan_ @PRJCTMARS

iShowSpeed just recreated the iconic “Deez Nutz” meme with the original creator 😭

@sledding_game @TattedTizzy @MiltyTheGreat we hitting the slopes?

DEMO OUT! GO PLAY! YIPEEE

@MegabonkGame @TattedTizzy 😂

YOOO 42k bonkers??? im gonna sniff so much powdered spaghetti tonight #megabonk

Haven-1, the world's first commercial space station and America’s next space station, is now fully welded and will soon begin testing ahead of integration.

@AntipartyGG Let's go!
