阿尔忒弥斯2号核心级移至2号高层作业间
In this image from Dec. 11, 2024, the 212-foot-tall SLS (Space Launch System) core stage is lowered into High Bay 2 at the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. With the move to High Bay 2, NASA and Boeing technicians now have 360-degree access to the core stage both internally and externally.
The Artemis II test flight, targeted for launch in 2026, will be NASA’s first mission with crew under the Artemis campaign. NASA astronauts Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Reid Wiseman, as well as CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen, will go on a 10-day journey around the Moon and back.

在这张2024年12月11日拍摄的图像中,212英尺高的太空发射系统(SLS)核心级被降落到佛罗里达州NASA肯尼迪航天中心的运载火箭装配大楼(VAB)2号高层作业间。随着核心级被转移到2号高层作业间,NASA和波音公司的技术人员现在可以360度全方位接触核心级的内部和外部。
计划于2026年发射的阿尔忒弥斯2号试飞任务将是NASA在阿尔忒弥斯探月计划下首次执行载人任务。NASA宇航员维克多·格洛弗(Victor Glover)、克里斯蒂娜·科赫(Christina Koch)、里德·怀斯曼(Reid Wiseman),以及加拿大航天局(CSA)宇航员杰里米·汉森(Jeremy Hansen)将执行一次为期10天的绕月飞行任务,之后返回地球。
