NASA is targeting 18:17 UTC today, Sept. 3, for the launch of Artemis I, the first integrated test of NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, Orion spacecraft, and the ground systems at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
There is a two-hour launch window for this next attempt. Predictions estimate a 60-80% chance of favorable weather, with conditions improving throughout the two-hour window.
Managers waved off the first launch attempt Aug. 29 when launch controllers were unable to chill down the four RS-25 engines, with one engine showing higher temperatures than the other engines.
Live coverage of this launch will begin at 16:15 UTC on NASA TV. We will post the links once the coverage starts.
We will also keep you covered with live updates on major milestones leading up to, and following the launch.
