Teams at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans are preparing the core stage of the agency’s SLS (Space Launch System) for shipment to the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The 212-foot-tall core stage and its four RS-25 engines will help power Artemis II, the first crewed mission of NASA’s Artemis campaign. Crews removed the external access stands, or scaffolding, in preparation for moving the rocket hardware to another area of the facility.
