NASAs massive moon rocket, the Space Launch System, is set for a crewed launch as early as April 1st, carrying four astronauts on the first human trip to the moon in over fifty years. Despite recent delays due to leaks and helium flow issues, the rocket is now cleared for launch. NASAs new administrator, Jared Isaacman, has announced changes to the Artemis program, including an Earth orbit test flight next year and moving the first moon landing to Artemis four. SpaceX and Blue Origin are working on lander development, but technical challenges like orbital refueling remain.
