From left, Artemis II NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, commander; Artemis II backup crew member Andre Douglas; and Artemis team members view the SLS (Space Launch System) core stage inside the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA Kennedy’s Space Center in Florida on Thursday, Feb. 27, 2025. The core stage has two giant propellant tanks that collectively hold more than 733,000 gallons of super cold liquid propellant to feed the stage’s four RS-25 engines to help send astronauts inside NASA’s Orion spacecraft to venture around the Moon for Artemis II.
