NASA Moon Mission Artemis I Launches Tomorrow
Weather permitting, tomorrow will mark the start of a dedicated Moon-bound program, the first since NASA's Apollo program ended in 1972.
Since information on Artemis I, tomorrow’s Orion space craft / SLS rocket pairing, is sure to be sought after by many searching online in the hours ahead, we published a detailed walkthrough of the mission’s technical capabilities and purpose over on FULCRUM News:
Critics of NASA say the space agency has lacked focus in recent years, so a success tomorrow will show the public — and legislators in Washington — that the agency still has a national purpose, and a place in the country’s plans.
Tomorrow’s unmanned test mission around the Moon and back is expected to be followed up by a crewed mission in 2024, or early 2025
