NASA reschedules its Moon mission to September 27 due to technical enhancements, the space agency says as it wants to build a lunar space station ahead of Mars mission
The NASA Moon rocket as it stands on Pad 39B for the Artemis 1 mission to orbit the Moon at the Kennedy Space Center, Tuesday, Sept. 6, 2022, in Cape Canaveral, Florida. No new launch date has been scheduled as of today.
The date would depend on engineering teams successfully carrying out a test to fuel up the Space Launch System rocket, and receive a waiver to avoid retesting batteries on an emergency flight system that is used to destroy the rocket if it strays from its designated range. For the September 27 date, a "70-minute launch window opens at 11:37 am EDT," while the mission would end with an ocean splashdown of the Orion capsule on November 5.The Artemis 1 space mission hopes to test the SLS as well as the unmanned Orion capsule that sits atop it, in preparation for future Moon-bound journeys with humans aboard.
One of the trip's main objectives is to test the capsule's heat shield — which at 16 feet in diameter is the largest ever built — when the ship re-enters the atmosphere.
