NASA's ambitious Artemis program could finally launch to the moon.
During the teleconference, Jeremy Parsons, deputy manager of NASA's Exploration Ground Systems program, added that "the unanimous recommendation for the team was that we were in a good position to go ahead and proceed with the launch countdown."
This means that NASA will carry out preflight checks and the cryogenic fueling process today, November 15, in preparation for its third Artemis I launch attempt tomorrow, November 16. NASA pointed outthat the two-hour launch window for tomorrow's attempt begins at 1:04 am EST . It will be streamed on NASA's YouTube channel, viewable in the embedded video below. We will also provide live text coverage here on IE.in September.
Those high winds removed a 10-foot section of the insulating caulking, but NASA officials still decided to give the go-ahead for launch. "We looked across the entire vehicle stack from the Orion spacecraft all the way down to the base of the stack, and we agreed that the risk is bounded by current hazards and hazard reports that we have out there," Sarafin explained, adding that the space agency will continue to monitor safety parameters up to launch.
