Progress Continues on Orion’s Service Module for Artemis II (News Release)
Inside the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, technicians work on the European Service Module that will help power and propel the Orion spacecraft carrying astronauts around the Moon on the Artemis II mission. On January 13, 2023, the service module was moved into a lifting station to enable technicians to install Orion's orbital maneuvering system engine nozzle and heat shield, which was completed on January 16.
The service module provides in-space maneuvering capability, power and life support commodities necessary for astronauts onboard Orion.
