NASA Sets Artemis I Next Launch Attempt

 NASA is hoping that third time is the charm for their mega moon rocket. They’ve picked the third attempt to launch Artemis I as September 27th. Over the weekend, the space agency replaced leaky fuel seals on the Space Launch System. The fuel leak forced NASA to call off the launch of the 32-story rocket earlier this month. It will be the first uncrewed test flight of the Artemis program that aims to return astronauts to the moon. A fuel test to check if the leaks are indeed fixed could come as early as this week. The space agency had been targeting September 23rd, which has a longer launch window. October 2nd is also a possible backup date.
