After scrubbing Artemis I’s second launch window last week, NASA said the agency is moving forward with two possible launch dates later this month.
The first window will be Sept. 23 from 6:47 a.m. until 8:47 a.m. ET. If officials cannot launch on Sept. 23, NASA will try again on Sept. 27. That launch window starts at 11:37 a.m. ET and lasts 70 minutes.
NASA scrubbed its Sept. 3 launch window due to a hydrogen leak. Crews installed new seals to prevent the liquid hydrogen from leaking. They will test the new seals no earlier than Sept. 17. Mike Bolger, manager of NASA's Exploration Ground Systems Program, told reporters Thursday that the team was “making great progress” in making repairs to Artemis I.Artemis I is the first of several missions as part of the Artemis program, which NASA hopes will prepare humanity to go farther than the moon.
The next Artemis mission isn't scheduled until 2024. While Artemis I will be unmanned, Artemis II will send four astronauts on a flyby of the moon. Artemis III is expected to include a crewed mission to the moon's surface.
