To The Moon! NASA successfully Launched Artemis 1

It’s back to the Moon for NASA as they successfully launched Artemis 1. “Artemis 1 is an uncrewed flight test that will provide a foundation for human deep space exploration and demonstrate our commitment and capability to return humans to the Moon and extend beyond.”

Today NASA is making history as they revisit the Moon. This is a test mission for the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket. This mission will demonstrate the performance of both the Orion and SLS and test their performance to orbit the Moon and return to Earth.
