NASA is preparing to launch the Artemis I moon rocket Monday. Here's how to watch.

NASA is set to launch the first moon rocket in its Artemis program Monday morning, the primary step in a complex series of missions aimed at enabling further human exploration of the moon and eventually, Mars.

The mission, dubbed Artemis I, will send an unmanned capsule on a 42-day trip around the moon before splashing down back into the Pacific Ocean. The operation will launch the first of the Space Launch Systems program.

Here's what to know about the launch:

What will Artemis I do?
Artemis I's main priority: testing Orion's new heat shield as it reenters Earth's atmosphere at 25,000 mph. The capsule will have to survive the fiery descent during the process that will likely become one of the fastest reentries to date.

If all goes according to plan with the 322-foot rocket, an Artemis II mission will do roughly the same, but with astronauts. Then, Artemis III aims to put two astronauts on the lunar surface sometime after 2025 – all part of NASA's program to return humans to the moon for the first time since 1972.

Dude I'm totally jazzed about it. Funny I put the same Kennedy speech on my Facebook page about the Artemis mission " We choose to go BACK to the moon". 🤣

This is long overdue. And I know we won't have an actual person on the moon till 2025 at the earliest. But this is a step in the right direction.

If we stay on earth and not become a multiplanetary species. Let alone a multi star system species our extinction over a long enough time line is 100%.

Well ot didn't liftoff today unfortunately. But after waiting 50 years., we can wait 4 more days. Better to play it a little safe then lose a multi-billion dollar rocket to a hydrogen leak.

@ChiTown33 I think that was the cause of Challenger..

[ChiTown33]

Among other things yeah. It was a small leak. It wasn't the only reason. Just the biggest. There was actually 4 problems they had. But it is an UNMANNED mission. That's why I emphasized $$ and not life/safety.
