Safety is our top priority.
The #Artemis I mission to the Moon has been postponed. During the tanking of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, teams discovered a leak in the hardware transferring propellants into the rocket. Despite troubleshooting efforts, teams were unable to fix the leak, and the launch was scrubbed.
Artemis I will be the first integrated flight test of the rocket and spacecraft that will bring humanity to the Moon; it's more important than ever to prioritize the safety of the teams and the hardware. Spaceflight is inherently risky, but @NASA is doing everything possible to minimize the risk and make it to the Moon.
Check here for updates on the new launch date.
