NASA sets November date for next SLS Moon rocket launch delay, er, launch
NASA now hopes to blast an unmanned Orion capsule atop a Space Launch System rocket to the Moon on November 14 after suffering, among other delays, a setback due to Hurricane Ian smashing up Florida.to the hangar on September 26 to shelter from the devastating storm. Now that Hurricane Ian has blown over, NASA can roll the rocket back out onto the launchpad at Cape Canaveral on the US East Coast to prepare for yet more delays, sorry, actual launch next month.
The Americans said their SLS rocket was in fine condition, and"minimal work" will be required to return the machine to Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center.
Issues arose when the large rocket was pumped with liquid hydrogen propellant, pressure sensors indicated fuel was escaping at an unacceptable rate. NASA in mid-September replaced the seals at quick disconnect points, where cryogenic fuel is pumped, to prevent any more leaks.
