NASA\u2019s oft-delayed Space Launch System is scheduled to take off on its debut flight on August 29th, 2022<\/a>. The megarocket is designed to launch vehicles into deep space, and its first mission is called Artemis I. It will be an uncrewed mission carrying the Orion space capsule deep into space and into a long orbit around the Moon before coming back to Earth. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s taken an extremely long time for the SLS to get to this point. It was originally supposed to launch in 2017 but has suffered mishaps and mismanagement, leading to many delays. It\u2019s also vastly over budget<\/a>; developing the rocket cost a stunning $11 billion, and it will cost an estimated $4.1 billion<\/a> per launch. <\/p>\n
The rocket is designed to usher in a new generation of deep space exploration and may eventually carry human explorers farther into space than we\u2019ve ever gone before. But first, it will have to get off the ground. Check back here for the latest stories as SLS launches and the Artemis I mission gets underway. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
