 NASA has announced the next launch date of the Chandrayaan Artemis 1.  Artemis-1 is ready for launch again after two failures, the agency said.  It is expected to be launched on September 23.  CNN reported on Monday (September 12).

On September 3, the Artemis-1 launch attempt was canceled for the second time at the very last minute.  It was scheduled to launch that evening from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA.

 As the reason, experts say, the 'Space Launch System' (SLS) rocket on which it will be launched has a hole in the fuel reserve of the system.  Liquid hydrogen was leaking from it.  Besides, the temperature control system also has errors.


 Earlier, the first launch of Artemis-1 was scheduled at 8:33 am local time on August 29.  Before the service launch, one of the rocket's four engines developed a fault.  The launch was canceled soon after.


 After two failures, NASA is going to try for the third time in a month.  According to the agency, engineers understand that there is a leak in the rocket's fuel system.  After that they started repairing.  It is also reported that the holes have been fixed by repairs.

NASA said that the Orion spacecraft Artemis 1 will be attempted to launch again on September 23.  If the launch is successful, the spacecraft will embark on a 48-day journey.  Will pass 60 thousand kilometers.  Will return to earth on October 18.


 The Artemis-1 spacecraft is 98 meters long.  The giant orange and white rocket took decades to build.  It is named after Greek mythology.  3 million liters of extra cold liquid hydrogen and oxygen have been filled as fuel.  This rocket is being sent to the moon mainly for experimental use of the SLS (Space Launch System) and the Orion crew capsule.


 The last time humans set foot on the moon was in 1969, during NASA's Apollo 17 mission.  After almost 50 years, another attempt to go to the moon.  But now no Navchari is going.  Artemis-1 is the first phase of NASA's 'Deep Space Exploration'.  If all goes well, NASA will send astronauts to the moon by 2024.
