Kennedy: Artemis One launches today. Artemis will be launched from the Kennedy Space Center at 11.47 pm tonight. The launch, which was scheduled for August 29, was postponed to today due to a leak in the fuel line.
The countdown started last Saturday. But due to the change in the weather, about 7 lakhs had to be refilled. It was at that time that the fuel line was found to be cracked. NASA then decided to postpone the launch.
This launch, which is the first test of the world’s most powerful rocket, will be powered by mannequins in space suits instead of humans. Although there are no humans this time, the scientific world is now trying to do more experiments with humans in the future. The researchers also describe this mission as the mission to fly the human race in the dream.
Instead of passengers, 3 dummies are carried in the capsule in this mission. The rocket weighing about 46 tons will carry a 7700 kg capsule inside. NASA says that the rocket will reach the moon in 8 to 14 days after launch and will come back to the Pacific Ocean after about 3 weeks of orbit.
