NASA has finally presented the rocket it will use to send people to the MOON again in 2024, and in the video clip above you can see the huge construction made to test it before launch. NASA chose the name SLS, Space Launch System, for this new rocket, it being a first step for the creation of a system that will transport people to the planet Mars, the next major objective that the American space agency has already established.
NASA built this rocket in New Orleans, and will test it in Mississippi before sending it into space to see how safe the launch can be for its astronauts. SLS is the transport system that NASA will use as part of the Artemis project, the one to take people to the moon in 2024, but we are also talking about the most powerful rocket ever created by any space agency in history.
NASA Unveils the AMAZING Rocket That Will Return Humans to the MOON
NASA has been working on this rocket for many years, its testing in the final version being postponed several times, the production costs also increasing, but in 2021 the testing should hardly take place. The NASA rocket will be tested 4 years later than originally planned, but it's good that the American space agency finally gets to check the rocket with which it will send people to the moon in about 4 years.
NASA will test the rocket without actually sending it into outer space, and this is because it cannot send it into outer space without being able to recover it, which of course it does not want. If the tests are successful, then in 2024 the first people will go to the MOON with its help, and this should be the first step towards creating a permanent base on the Earth's natural satellite, before leaving for the planet Mars.
NASA has already made the program to send people to the MOON, but it remains to be seen to what extent it will be able to respect it, and this is because until now it has had many postponements.
