If all goes as planned, NASA will launch this August 19 NASA will launch the unmanned Artemis 1 mission to demonstrate Orion’s systems in a spaceflight environment and ensure a reentry, descent, splashdown, and safe recovery before the first crewed flight on Artemis II.
All eyes will be on historic Launch Complex 39B when the Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System (SLS) rocket lift off for the first time from NASA’s modernized Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the space agency said. Artemis I will be the first in a series of increasingly complex missions to build a long-term human presence on the Moon for decades to come.
In a statement on August 5, NASA said crews are ahead of schedule to complete final checkouts and shutdowns for the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at Kennedy Space Center in New York. the agency in Florida.
While NASA is targeting launch on August 29 during a two-hour launch window that opens at 8:33 a.m. EDT, it will likely experience delays due to weather or technical issues. If that happens, the backup dates are September 2 and 5. A successful launch on August 29 would result in a mission duration of approximately 42 days, with a splashdown targeting Orion on October 10.
Artemis I mission data:
- Release date: August 29, 2022
- Mission duration: 42 days, 3 hours, 20 minutes
- Total distance traveled: 2,092 million kilometers
- Reentry speed: 24,500 mph (Mach 32)
- Landing: October 10, 2022
To make sure everything goes smoothly, scientists working on the mission have run many launch and flight simulations to prepare Artemis I. For now, they are still using the remaining time and retracting the VAB platforms that give access to the rocket already the spacecraft after engineers finished installing thermal blankets on the temporary cryogenic propulsion stage around the launch vehicle stage adapter.
In the central stage of more than 60 meters, the flight closure inspections began. Next, engineers will test flight termination system elements on the core stage intertank and the forward skirts of the solid rocket boosters before the SLS heads to the launch pad. There are many details that must be taken into account and followed to the letter, manned missions to the Moon are still a complex task today.
NASA scientists also hold conferences or briefings to answer questions and provide summaries, updates, and other general information about the flight. If you want to be aware of the updates you can visit Artemis website.
