In 2022 #NASA conducted a wet dress-rehearsal of the #Artemis I mission that would send an uncrewed #Orion #spacecraft around the Moon.
The enormous #SLS #rocket, sitting at Launch Complex 39B, was needed to send the #spaceship to the Moon.

Today is the anniversary of the #Apollo11 #MoonLanding!
This is the #SLS or #Space #Launch System, with an #Orion capsule on top for the #spacecraft’s first test flight around the Moon.
The #Artemis program will see several exploratory missions to the Moon before establishing a permanent base on the surface.

A #photograph of the lower section of an #Orion #crew #capsule in a work platform at the old “Manned Spaceflight Operations Center” at #KSC, now the #NeilArmstrong Operations and Checkout Building.
The new Orion integration pathway allows the Orion #spacecraft to be assembled, stacked on the #EuropeanServiceModule, and readied for #flight atop an #SLS #rocket.
The #LaunchAbortSystem integrated in a separate facility since the #LAS contains solid fueled rockets already. The stack is then integrated on top of SLS inside the Vehicle Assembly Building #VAB and then rolled out to #LC39B on the #Crawler-Transporter for #launch.
The O&C building, VAB, Crawler-Transporter, and LC-29B #infrastructure all have #Apollo-era heritage.
