With the wet dress rehearsal, essentially a critical fueling test of the Artemis 2 Space Launch System moon rocket, now back on Feb. 2, NASA said in a statement that it can no longer target Feb. 6 or Feb. 7, the first two days of its launch window. The Artemis 2 launch window originally ran from Feb. 6 to Feb. 10.

NASA has begun a two-day practice countdown for its first moonshot with astronauts in 53 years. The dress rehearsal that started Saturday night will culminate with the fueling of the space agency's new moon rocket.

NASA's Artemis II mission looks to be as little as a couple of weeks away. The middle child of the three-part Artemis project, this mission will allow humans to swing by the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years. It also hopes to pave the way for even more ambitious missions in the future.

As the U.S. prepares for another lunar landing, one woman who spent years working in Flagstaff could soon set foot on the Moon.

The buzz is building for NASA’s Artemis II mission that will send four astronauts on a 10-day voyage around the moon. The highly anticipated endeavor will be the first crewed moon-bound flight since the final Apollo mission way back in 1972.
