Published by NASA Spaceflight on 06/05/2022

The first integrated Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System (SLS) rocket for NASA’s Artemis 1 lunar test flight is returning to Launch Pad 39B at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida in hopes of finishing the last major test before its inaugural launch planned for later this year. Repairs and maintenance were performed in May, both in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at KSC and outside the space center at the Air Liquide nitrogen plant.
