NASA Completes Structural Test Campaign for SLS Rocket

Posted by in category: space travel

NASA has completed the structural test campaign for NASA’s Space Launch System rocket at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. A test version of the rocket’s liquid oxygen tank was purposely pushed to its limits on June 22.

The final test concludes a nearly three-year structural test series that qualified the structural design of multiple hardware elements for the rocket that will launch NASA’s Artemis missions and astronauts to the Moon. WATCH go.nasa.gov/9312
