Space Launch System

On August 13, 2025, NASA teams at Kennedy Space Center successfully lifted and positioned the Artemis III Space Launch System (SLS) core stage engine section with its boat-tail inside the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). Shown in High Bay 2, the hardware is now undergoing processing ahead of its integration...

On July 12, 2025, NASA teams at the Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans achieved another critical milestone for Artemis III as they successfully moved a massive liquid oxygen (LOX) tank into position for final assembly. The process, known as a “breakover,” lifted the tank from a horizontal orientation to...

NASA has reached a significant milestone in the Artemis program with the successful integration of the Space Launch System (SLS) core stage for Artemis II at Kennedy Space Center. This achievement marks a major step forward in preparing for the first crewed Artemis mission, which will send four astronauts around...

Production of Artemis V’s Space Launch System (SLS) core stage is progressing with the first engine section barrel weld successfully completed at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans. This achievement marks an important step in advancing aerospace manufacturing for deep space exploration. Artemis V Engine Section Barrel Weld Completed...
