NASA announced today that it is aiming for Thursday, February 25, to conduct the second and hopefully final Green Run hot fire test of the Space Launch System's core stage booster that will fly on the Artemis 1 mission no earlier than the end of this year. The space agency will host a teleconference this Friday, February 19, to discuss next week's crucial engine demonstration. Stay tuned.
