The launch of NASA's historic Artemis 2 mission looks incredible in these stunning launch photos.
On Wednesday (April 1), NASA launched its history-making Artemis 2 mission, which will see humanity return to the vicinity of the moon for the first time in over half a century. Not only this, but Artemis 2 will carry humans farther into space than they have ever ventured before.
Every rocket launch begins with a waiting game. The SLS was rolled out to the historic Launch Pad 39B on March 19 at around 8 p.m. EDT (0000 GMT on March 20), for an agonizing 12-day wait.
