NASA launches Artemis moon rocket after several setbacks | DW News



NASA launched its most powerful rocket ever on Wednesday as part of the Artemis mission to reach the moon. The 32-story Space Launch System (SLS) rocket launched from Cape Canaveral at 1:47 local time (0647 GMT/UTC). NASA estimated 15,000 spectators gathered at the launch site. The crowd burst into cheers as the ground rumbled and the rocket lifted off.
It was the launch attempt for the multibillion-dollar rocket after 10 weeks of technical mishaps and back-to-back hurricanes repeatedly delayed the launch.

  1. Setting base on the moon and having a McDonald's floating above a friendly crater would set a US marketing precedent indeed. As for Mars base, umm, I prefer settling for a Mars bar here on earth😊

  2. Kinda a waste. Going all the way to the moon. But not actually going there. And they plan to do this a 3nd time and not land? What a waste of time and money.

    And just like the 1960's while we burn up billions on testing, MILLIONS are starving to death. Coincidence? I think not.
