Here we go!⁣ ⁣ The rocket core stage for the #Artemis II mission is on the move. On July 6, NASA and Boeing teams at Michoud Assembly Facility moved the SLS (Space Launch System) stage to prepare to load it onto the Pegasus barge for delivery to NASAKennedy Space Center. ⁣ ⁣ The core stage serves as the backbone of the rocket. The 212-foot (65-meter) core stage has two huge propellant tanks, avionics and flight computer systems, and four RS-25 engines, which together enable the stage to operate during launch and flight.⁣ ⁣ Artemis II will be the first crewed Artemis flight. Four astronauts will fly around the Moon in preparation for future human landings. ⁣ ⁣ Credit: NASA/Michael DeMocker⁣ ⁣ Image description: The yellowish-orange SLS rocket core stage is seen rolling into a facility at NASA Michoud in New Orleans.
