The core stage for NASA's Artemis 3 rocket has been raised inside the Vehicle Assembly Building, and is awaiting engine integration.
The first stage of the Artemis 3 Space Launch System (SLS) rocket is now vertical inside NASA's cavernous Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida, where it awaits integration with its engine section, NASA announced in an X post on Sunday (May 10).
The pieces are beginning to come together for NASA's next Artemis mission.
