Photo of the Day: The Moon Rocket and Its Destination...

Yesterday, renowned rocket photographer Ben Cooper tweeted this awesome image of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket at Kennedy Space Center's (KSC) Launch Complex 39B in Florida...with the Full Moon looming large behind it.

This soon-to-be iconic photo is one for the history books—as Artemis 1 is about three months away from launching (assuming that the SLS Wet Dress Rehearsal takes place in early April as expected) on a mission that will send the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle on a weeks-long journey to the Moon and back to Earth.

Seven days from now, I'll hopefully be at KSC to finally see this amazing rocket in person... Knock on wood!
