NASAs Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, with the Orion capsule atop, slowly makes its way down the crawlerway at the agencys Kennedy Space Center in Florida on March 17, 2022. Carried atop the crawler-transporter 2, NASAs Moon rocket is venturing from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Complex 39B for a wet dress rehearsal ahead of the uncrewed Artemis I launch. The first in an increasingly complex set of missions, Artemis I will test SLS and Orion as an integrated system prior to crewed flights to the Moon. Through Artemis, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the lunar surface, paving the way for a long-term lunar presence and serving as a steppingstone on the way to Mars.
