In the days ahead, NASA could roll out the SLS rocket that will propel four astronauts on a journey around the moon. Here's the latest on Artemis 2.

NASA announces Artemis II launch date for Feb. 6, sending four astronauts around the Moon for the first time in over 50 years in historic 10-day mission.

As part of the Artemis 2 mission, the US space agency is getting ready to roll out its giant Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the Orion spacecraft to the launch pad over the next few days. If all goes to plan,

NASA has set February 6 as the earliest launch date for Artemis II, the first crewed Moon mission since 1972. The 10-day flight will send four astronauts around the Moon and back, paving the way for a future lunar landing.

The towering rocket that will help propel a group of astronauts on NASA's first human moon mission in half-a-century may soon be visible in Florida.

NASA could be sending a crew on the Orion spacecraft out past the moon in less than a month if everything falls into place. But first the agency has to get its rocket to the launch pad.
