NASA Achieves Milestone for Engines to Power Future Artemis Missions

NASA marks the halfway point of the RS-25 certification series four days later on Jan. 27 with the sixth test of the series on the Fred Haise Test Stand at NASA’s Stennis Space Center. For each Artemis mission, four RS-25 engines, along with a pair of solid rocket boosters, power the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket, producing more than 8.8 million pounds of thrust at liftoff.
