Artemis I SLS Beauty Shots

In a view from above, NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft for Artemis I are in High Bay 3 inside the Vehicle Assembly Building at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Aug. 3, 2022. Work platforms surround the SLS and Orion stack. Artemis I will be the first integrated test of the SLS and Orion spacecraft. In later missions, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the surface of the Moon, paving the way for a long-term lunar presence and serving as a steppingstone on the way to Mars.
