According to the Artemis blog, the core stage booster for the Space Launch System has now been completely powered up for the Green Run hot fire test at NASA's Stennis Space Center in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. With all avionics activated earlier today, the countdown has begun for what will hopefully be a full-duration firing of all four RS-25 engines (lasting a little over 8 minutes) on March 18. NASA TV will begin coverage of this highly-anticipated test 30 minutes before ignition...which can occur as soon as 3 PM, Eastern Daylight Time (12 PM, Pacific Daylight Time) two days from now. The test window will last for two hours.
