New Images of Artemis in the VAB; Rollout for SLS Launch Rehearsal Test Now Scheduled for March 17
“The crawler transporter will use a range of speeds,” Bolger said in a call with reporters, “from .1 mph to .82 mph. The slower speeds are for departing the VAB and the ‘higher’ speed is the cruising speed, so to speak.” “The crawler transporter will be carrying this 17 million pound stack,” Bolger said, “and the top of the umbilical will be about 400 feet off the ground, so it will really be a sight.”The main goal of the test on the launchpad will be the “wet dress” rehearsal, which includes filling the core stage fuel tanks with liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen propellants and then going through a practice countdown that will stop at T-9.
