Technical issues challenge NASA ahead of latest moon rocket launch
NASA says a risky repair job appears to have fixed the hydrogen fuel leak that threatened to delay a third attempt to send the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft on a test flight known as Artemis I, and liftoff could be minutes away.

What are all those black and white dots on NASA's Artemis I SLS rocket?
The iconic red NASA "worm" logo, the bright orange fuel tank, and the sheer size of the new SLS rocket may be the first things most people notice. But a closer look reveals a striking pattern of black and white markings.

With Artemis I, NASA plans to plant seeds of inspiration – literally
NASA’s Artemis program has deep figurative roots that go back to the Apollo moon missions of the 1960s and 1970s. And soon, it will have literal roots as well.
