Artemis 2 is at the launch pad, but several big tests must be performed before it launches as soon as Feb. 6.

NASA's ambitious mission to return astronauts to the moon for the first time this century is on track to launch no later than April 2026, but it just might fly sooner if all goes well.

The uncrewed mission around the moon will pave the way for a crewed flight test and future human lunar exploration.

Today's cryogenic demonstration test was a success, despite constant wrangling with -- you guessed it -- hydrogen fuel leaks.

Fuel leak ruins NASA’s second bid at launching the SLS, delaying the debut of its Moon-to-Mars mission by weeks.

They attempted this twice, and also flushed helium through the line. But the leak persisted.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Florida: NASA on Saturday scrapped a second attempt to get its new 30-storey rocket off the ground and send its uncrewed test capsule toward the Moon after engineers detected a fuel leak.

The stars appear to be aligned for NASA's Moon rocket to finally blast off on Saturday, with weather forecasts favorable and technical issues that postponed the launch earlier this week resolved. A fuel leak during the final preparations has, however, slowed the process down.

The final countdown is on. Artemis I has been confirmed to attempt launch to space on Monday August 29.
