Ugly Artemis I in Kerbal Space Program. Ughh [RSS/RO/RP-1]
6Artemis 1, officially Artemis I,[5] is a planned uncrewed Moon-orbiting mission, the first spaceflight in NASA's Artemis program, and the first flight of the agency's Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the complete Orion spacecraft.[note 1] It is scheduled to launch on 3 September 2022, 18:17 UTC (2:17 PM, EDT).[6]
Formerly known as Exploration Mission-1 (EM-1),[7] the mission was renamed following the creation of the Artemis program. The mission will lift off from Launch Complex 39B at the Kennedy Space Center aboard the Space Launch System rocket. The Orion spacecraft will be launched on a mission of between 26 and 42 days,[8] with at least six of those days in a distant retrograde orbit around the Moon.[8] After reaching orbit and performing a trans-lunar injection (burn to the Moon), the mission will deploy ten CubeSat satellites and the Orion spacecraft will enter a distant retrograde orbit for six days. The Orion spacecraft will then return and reenter the Earth's atmosphere, protected by its heat shield, and splash down in the Pacific Ocean. The mission will certify Orion and the Space Launch System for crewed flights beginning with Artemis 2.[9]
The Orion spacecraft for Artemis 1 was stacked on 20 October 2021, marking the first time a super-heavy-lift vehicle has been stacked inside NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) since the final Saturn V. On 17 August 2022, the fully stacked vehicle was rolled out for launch, after a series of delays caused by difficulties in pre-flight testing. The first launch attempt was made on 29 August 2022, but was cancelled due to a faulty reading on a redundant sensor. After the Artemis 1 mission, Artemis 2 will perform a crewed lunar flyby and Artemis 3 will perform a crewed lunar landing, five decades after the last Apollo mission.
