CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — With NASA once again a day away from the first launch of its giant new moon rocket, the weather is looking good. NASA's Artemis 1 moon mission is scheduled to launch on the agency's debut Space Launch System (SLS) megarocket Saturday (Sept. 3) from Pad 39B here at the Kennedy Space Center five days after an initial attempt ended in a scrub . Liftoff is set for 2:17 p. m. EDT (1817 GMT). After solving some technical issues that caused the first launch scrub on Monday (Aug. 29), NASA officials said weather is the only other main concern, but looks promising for launch attempts on Saturday as well as a backup day on Sept. 5. You can watch the launch live online Monday starting at 12:15 p. m. EDT (1615 GMT).

S. Space Force's Space Launch Delta 45, told reporters in a press conference here today. Lovin said there is a 60% chance of good weather when the launch window opens on Saturday and conditions will improve up to an 80% chance of good conditions as the two-hour launch window progresses. The potential for scattered rain showers and thick clouds are the primary weather concerns, she added.

NASA will be watching the weather early Saturday morning to make sure it's safe to begin fueling the 32-story rocket with its 736,000 gallons of super-chilled propellant at about 5:45 a. m. EDT (0945 GMT). Bad weather stalled fueling efforts for nearly an hour on its first launch attempt on Aug. 29. Artemis 1 is NASA's first uncrewed test flight of its new deep-space exploration Artemis program to return astronauts to the moon by 2025. This flight will use the SLS, NASA's most powerful rocket ever, to launch an Orion spacecraft on a 37-day trip around the moon to prove both vehicles are safe for astronauts. The first crewed mission, Artemis 2 , is scheduled to fly in 2025 with the crewed lunar landing to follow on Artemis 3 a year later. NASA has powered up the 322-foot-tall (98 meters) SLS rocket and its Orion capsule for the Saturday launch attempt and all systems look good leading into the final countdown, according to Jeremy Parsons, NASA's deputy manager of exploration ground systems. — Space Launch System: NASA's megarocket for Artemis moon missions — Orion spacecraft: NASA's next-gen capsule to take astronauts beyond Earth orbit — Artemis 1 cubesats: The 10 tiny satellites hitching a NASA ride to the moon NASA called off its first Artemis 1 launch attempt while fueling the massive SLS rocket when one of its four main engines did not appear to reach a cold enough temperature, minus 420 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 251 Celsius), needed for launch. A faulty sensor in the engine caused the issue and NASA has developed backup means to ensure its engines are cold enough for launch. Launch engineers have also fixed a liquid hydrogen leak and solved a vent valve glitch on the SLS core booster that also cropped up during the countdown. "Our team is ready," Parsons said. "They are getting better with every attempt and actually performed superbly during the last countdown.
