NASA is ready to go again for the inaugural launch of its Artemis Program.
When will Artemis 1 launch? The inaugural launch of NASA’s Artemis Program is now scheduled to take place on Monday, November 14, 2022to a NASA blog. That’s a long time to wait, but there’s a bonus—it’s destined to be a spectacular night launch.
Technical issues in late August and September—as well as fears of a hurricane—prompted NASA officials to scrub a couple of launches and cancel other planned launch dates. Artemis I is an uncrewed long-duration 1.3 million miles trip to the Moon, past the Moon and then back again. It will test NASA’s new heavy-lift rocket, the Space Launch System —the biggest rocket ever built—as well as proving-out the Orion spacecraft for crewed flights to the Moon.
The entire launch vehicle is currently in NASA’s huge Vehicle Assembly Building at Cape Canaveral, but the agency plans to roll the rocket back to the launch pad as early as Friday, November 4. It’s the first of three Artemis missions on the schedule, with Artemis II in 2024 slated to take four crew and Artemis III due to take two astronauts to the lunar surface in 2025 or later.Artemis-1 is now scheduled for a launch attempt on Monday, November 14, 2022. The launch window opens at 12:07 a.m. EST and closes 69 minutes later at 01:16 a.m. EST.
