Roll me mama, like an SLS.⁣ ⁣ On June 6, 2022, teams at NASAKennedy Space Center rolled the Artemis I Moon rocket from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Complex 39B.⁣ ⁣ The Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft can be seen atop the crawler-transporter 2 and mobile launcher during the 4.2 mile (6.8 km) journey. Soon, teams will begin the next “wet dress rehearsal” attempt — a launchpad test that will take teams through the launch countdown ahead of the Artemis I mission.⁣ ⁣ Artemis I will test the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft as an integrated system prior to crewed flights to the Moon. Through NASAArtemis, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the lunar surface, paving the way for a long-term lunar presence and using the Moon as a steppingstone before venturing to Mars.⁣ ⁣ Credit: NASA/Ben Smegelsky⁣ ⁣ #Artemis #NASA #Rocket #NASAWorm #SpaceLaunchSystem #MegaMoonRocket #NASAKennedy #Orion
