If the countdown and fueling test go well, four astronauts will set their sights on a Super Bowl Sunday launch to the moon.
However, NASA has not yet chosen an official launch date, and will not do so until the Artemis II stack passes its Wet Dress Rehearsal, with a simulated T0 that had been set for Saturday, Jan. 31 at 9:00 PM EST (02:00 UTC) but is now delayed until Monday, Feb. 2 at 9:00 PM EST (02:00 UTC Tuesday Feb. 3).
The official countdown of the Artemis II Moon mission wet dress rehearsal test has begun at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
NASA personnel are continuing their “wet dress rehearsal countdown” for the Artemis II moon mission rocket launch, which could happen in about one week.
