NASA Ships Moon Rocket Stage Ahead of First Crewed Artemis Flight
==========
NASA has shipped the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket's core stage for the Artemis II test flight from its manufacturing facility in New Orleans to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The core stage, which is the largest NASA has ever produced, consists of five major elements and will be integrated with other parts of the rocket for the Artemis II mission. The stage will operate for just over eight minutes, producing more than 2 million pounds of thrust to propel four astronauts inside NASA's Orion spacecraft toward the Moon. The SLS is part of NASA's Artemis campaign, which aims to land the first woman, first person of color, and the first international partner astronaut on the Moon.
