Artemis II Emergency Egress Demonstration (Day 3)

Teams at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida practice the Artemis mission emergency escape or egress procedures during a series of integrated system verification and validation tests at Launch Complex 39B. Members of the closeout crew, pad rescue team, and the Exploration Ground Systems Program, as well a simulated flight crew, practiced the process of getting in and out of the emergency egress baskets. For this test, personnel did not ride down the baskets. Prior to this test and throughout the course of several months, teams conducted several basket release demonstrations to validate the system.
