Artemis launch scrubbed again

NASA on Saturday was once again unable to launch its massive Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft because of a hydrogen fuel leak. Several attempts to fix it failed. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said after the scrub that a new attempt to launch the Artemis I mission could be delayed until mid October, depending on whether the rocket needs to be rolled back to its assembly building for repairs. It is the second time this week that NASA had to scrub a planned launch of SLS at Kennedy Space Center, Fla. (Sources: multiple, including Washington Post, NPR, 09/03/22) Previous
