NASA’s Artemis I Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, with the Orion capsule attached, launches at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on November 16, 2022 in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The Artemis I mission will send the uncrewed spacecraft around the moon to test the vehicle’s propulsion, navigation and power systems as a precursor to later crewed mission to the lunar surface.
The new era of space travel and scientific discovery kicked off by the successful launch and return of Artemis I will be astounding, but before the big discoveries can be made astronauts will have to deal with a very Earthbound problem: Figuring out just where the heck they are.
