Bad news for the 3 Artemis Mission
These days, the mood that you feel in the rooms of NASA seems to be back to the best times. There is euphoria for the Artemis program, praise is being sung for the Space Launch System rocket, and plans are being made for the moves that should soon put man back on the Moon.
NASA teams are racing towards the first launch of the SLS rocket at Kennedy Space Center. The final pieces needed for full-stack testing were recently installed the Orion stage adapter structural test article and Orion Mass Simulator. Teams have been working night and day to clear their ‘To-Do’ lists. NASA is working towards a launch date sometime this year, and we hear that the schedule is currently holding to the date. There is a mad rush to get SLS ready to launch before the year is out.
Great excitement and a lot of optimism, so Is it, however, really that way? Are NASA officials really living the typical exaltation of the moment and trust that the mission will really start in November?
Let find out in this episode of SpaceX fans:
Firstly, we’ll get a sneak peek at the current state of SLS. What is the plan for it in the near future?
Publicly, NASA is still holding on to the possibility of a 2021 launch date for the debut flight of its Space Launch System rocket. An agency spokesperson recently said that “NASA is working toward a launch for the Artemis I mission by the end of this year.”
However, a source said the best-case scenario for launching the Artemis 1 mission in spring of next year, with summer being the more realistic target for a test flight of the heavy-lift rocket and Orion spacecraft. The space agency is already running about two months behind internal targets for testing and integrating the rocket at Kennedy Space Center, and the critical pre-flight tests remain ahead.
NASA’s Kathryn Hambleton acknowledged that the space agency has seen schedule slips. “The agency continues to monitor the rise of COVID cases in the Kennedy area, which, combined with other factors such as weather and first time operations, is impacting our schedule of operations,” she said. “Moving step by step, we are progressing toward launch while keeping our team as safe as possible.”
