John Nesworthy, crawler-transporter/mobile launcher systems mechanical technician, Jacobs Engineering, looks on as NASAs Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion spacecraft rolls out of the Vehicle Assembly Buildings High Bay 3 to Launch Complex 39B on Tuesday, Aug. 16, 2022, at NASAs Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The agencys Artemis I flight test is scheduled to liftoff on Monday, Aug. 29. The first in a series of increasingly complex missions, Artemis I will provide a foundation for human deep space exploration and demonstrate our commitment and capability to extend human presence to the Moon and beyond. The primary goal of Artemis I is to thoroughly test the integrated systems before crewed missions by launching Orion atop the SLS rocket, operating the spacecraft in a deep space environment, testing Orions heat shield, and recovering the crew module after reentry, descent, and splashdown.
