Washington (AFP) - NASA is now targeting September 27 as the earliest possible launch date for its uncrewed Artemis 1 mission to the Moon, the agency said in a blog post Monday. The date would depend on engineering teams successfully carrying out a test to fuel up the Space Launch System rocket, and receive a waiver to avoid retesting batteries on an emergency flight system that is used to destroy the rocket if it strays from its designated range. If it does not receive the waiver, the rocket will have to be wheeled back to its assembly building, pushing the timeline back several weeks. For th...

Kennedy Space Center (United States) (AFP) - NASA will make a second attempt to launch its powerful new Moon rocket on Saturday, after scrubbing a test flight earlier in the week, an official said Tuesday.

Mission manager Mike Sarafin, said the NASA team "agreed to move our launch date to Saturday, September the third." Blastoff had been planned for Monday morning but was canceled because a test...

Washington (AFP) - US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Thursday that North Korea may be seeking attention with its missile launches, which he said were "destabilizing."

North Korea's tests are "profoundly destabilizing, it's dangerous, and it contra...
