NASA Artemis III SLS & Crewed Orion Lander Rendezvous & Docking Demo

UPDATED • DELAYED • DELAY EXPECTED

Mid 2027

Launch Complex 39B (LC-39B) | Kennedy Space Center (KSC) • NASA Artemis 3 • Space Launch System (SLS) Block 1 • Four Aerojet Rocketdyne RS-25 Hydrolox (6:1) Engines • Two Northrop Grumman Five Segment Booster (FSB-1) SLS Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs) • Single Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10C-2 Upper Stage • ESA Orion European Service Module • Orion • TBC Lander • Low Earth Orbit (LEO)

@NASA NASA will increase the cadence of the Artemis missions to successfully return humans to the Moon and sustain a lunar presence. Artemis III will test systems in low Earth orbit to prepare for an Artemis IV Moon landing in 2028
