What happened during the first attempt of NASA Artemis I mission
NASA confirmed that mission managers discussed data and developed a forward plan to address issues that arose during an Aug. 29 launch attempt for the flight test. The team noticed a hydrogen leak on a component. Mission teams are currently analyzing the data, updating procedures, and checking out hardware to address the issues.
"In the coming days, teams will modify and practice propellant loading procedures to follow a procedure similar to what was successfully performed during the Green Run at NASA's Stennis Space Center in Mississippi," NASA said in a blog post.
For the next launch attempt, meteorologists with the U.S. Space Force Space Launch Delta 45 will let the agency know if weather condition are favorable.
