NASA has postponed the Artemis II mission launch from February to March due to persistent hydrogen leaks and technical issues encountered during a wet dress rehearsal at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The mission aims to send four astronauts on a lunar flyby, marking the first crewed moon mission since 1972.
The next potential launch window opens on March 6, 2024, with additional opportunities in the following days. NASA will analyze data and conduct further tests before confirming a new launch date.
