🚀 Returning to the Pad. Advancing to the Stars. Exciting News! Artemis II has arrived at Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center, marking the final preparations for its historic lunar mission. With a target launch date of Wednesday, April 1, this represents an incredible step forward in NASA’s journey to return humans to the Moon. Now, @amentum_corp's expert teams are hard at work completing the final pad configurations to support liftoff, each moment bringing us nearer to making history with NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft. 🌕 The Moon Awaits.

Go Eagles!

Our Artemis II astronaut @AstroVicGlover has built a remarkable career as a naval aviator, test pilot, and astronaut. Listening to him talk about the updated Artemis architecture, you realize how quickly the path to space is changing. We’re not just flying a mission, we’re building the foundation for sustained exploration beyond Earth.

Following the discovery of a helium flow issue with the Artemis II rocket, engineers have determined the issue and made repairs. NASA is preparing to roll the vehicle out to the launch pad in the coming weeks ahead of a potential launch in April. go.nasa.gov/3MJeGVP

I've been one of those who can see the pro's and con's of contemporary AI, but after seeing this video, I'm firmly in the "kill it with fire" camp. youtube.com/shorts/HgRi3co…

Immense pride seeing the rocket reach 100% fuel load last night, especially knowing how challenging the scenario was for our launch team doing the dangerous and unforgiving work. The crew just shared a peaceful breakfast with our families and we jump back into training tomorrow to start our preps for a March launch to the Moon.

“We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time.” — TS Eliot

When @NASA’s SLS rocket launches @NASAArtemis II, four CubeSats, or small satellites, will be hitching a ride inside the rocket’s Orion stage adapter. These CubeSats - all provided by countries that are a part of the Artemis Accords - will be deployed about five hours after launch. Learn more about what they are studying: go.nasa.gov/4bbU9Tw

It’s a good day for a roll out

🎼 I love rocket roll!! 🎶

Good morning, Moon. See you next month?

Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss was 23-13 without Pete Golding and 32-6 with him. Now Golding has two CFP wins to Kiffin's zero and is seamlessly assuming the 'Portal King' crown. 🔗 on3.com/teams/ole-miss…

Kudos to the Rebel fans that moved the Superdome to Mississippi for the night to give Ole Miss home-field advantage.

WHY NOT US????

I appreciate that they made Georgia lose that game three straight times.
