NASA’s Artemis I moon rocket returned to the safety of its hangar this week as Hurricane Ian approached Florida. Its launch is now unlikely before mid-November.
The NASA moon rocket, right, slated for the Artemis mission to the moon rolls back to the Vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2022, in Cape Canaveral, Fla. The launch of the rocket was postponed due to the impending arrival of Hurricane Ian.
Instead of trying to send it on its first test flight, the launch team moved the 322-foot rocket off the pad at Kennedy Space Center. The four-mile trip took all night. The Space Launch System rocket should have blasted off a month ago, but was delayed twice by fuel leaks and engine issues.
