Behind the crew, wearing clean room apparel, are members of the Artemis II closeout crew. Testing included a suited crew test and crew equipment interface test, performing launch day and simulated orbital activities inside the Orion spacecraft. This series of tests marks the first time the crew entered their spacecraft that will take them around the Moon and back to Earth while wearing their spacesuits.

NASA engineers and technicians pose for a photograph in front of the agency’s Artemis II Orion spacecraft on Thursday, Aug. 7, 2025, inside the Multi-Payload Processing Facility (MPPF) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Orion arrived at the MPPF in early May for fueling and processing and will next head to the spaceport’s Launch Abort System Facility to be integrated with its 44-foot-tall launch abort system. Once integration is complete, the stack will be transported to High Bay 3 inside NASA Kennedy’s Vehicle Assembly Building and integrated with the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket that will launch NASA’s Artemis II astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen around the Moon and back.

Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Monday, Aug. 11, 2025. During launch day, NASA flight crews have a tradition of playing a board or card game before leaving the crew quarters ahead of launch until the commander loses so that the commander burns off all his or her bad luck before the flight. During a two-day operation, the Artemis II team practiced night-run demonstrations of different launch day scenarios like suit-up operations, walk-out, and arriving at the launch pad for the Artemis II test flight.

NASA Marshall built the Orion stage adapter which connects to the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket’s interim cryogenic propulsion stage to the Orion spacecraft and protects Orion from flammable gases generated during launch. The Artemis II test flight will take four astronauts around the Moon and return them back home in early 2026.

Positioned at the top of Orion, the 44-foot-tall launch abort system is designed to carry the crew to safety in the event of an emergency during launch or ascent, with its three solid rocket motors working together to propel Orion – and astronauts inside – away from the rocket for a safe landing in the ocean, or detach from the spacecraft when it is no longer needed. The final step to complete integration will be the installation of the ogive fairings, which are four protective panels that will shield the crew module from the severe vibrations and sounds it will experience during launch.

description:
Teams with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems completed installation of two ogive fairings onto the launch abort system inside the Launch Abort System Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Wednesday, Sept. 10, 2025. The ogives consist of four protective panels that will shield the crew module from the severe vibrations and sounds it will experience during launch. Positioned at the top of Orion, the 44-foot-tall launch abort system is designed to carry the crew to safety in the event of an emergency during launch or ascent, with its three solid rocket motors working together to propel Orion – and astronauts inside – away from the rocket for a safe landing in the ocean, or detach from the spacecraft when it is no longer needed.

Teams with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems attached the fourth and final ogive fairing for the launch abort system of the Orion spacecraft for the Artemis II mission. The fully installed fairings were photographed inside the Launch Abort System Facility high bay at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Sept. 17, 2025. The ogives are protective panels that will shield the crew module from the severe vibrations and sounds it will experience during launch, while the 44-foot-tall launch abort system will detach from the spacecraft after launch when it is no longer needed.

Technicians completed installation of the German Aerospace Center TACHELES CubeSat within the Orion stage adapter inside the Multi-Payload Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025. The TACHELES CubeSat, about the size of a shoebox, is one of the CubeSats slated to fly on NASA’s Artemis II test flight in 2026. Deploying in high Earth orbit from a spacecraft adapter on NASA’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket after Orion is safely flying on its own with its crew of four astronauts, TACHELES will collect measurements on the effects of the space environment on electrical components to inform technologies for lunar vehicles.

During the Artemis II test flight, the Orion stage adapter separates from the interim cryogenic propulsion stage, deploying four science payloads into high-Earth orbit. Up next, the Orion spacecraft and its launch abort system will stack atop the Orion stage adapter to complete integration and prepare for the launch of four astronauts around the Moon and back in early 2026.

For Artemis II, four astronauts will venture around the Moon in early 2026, the first crewed mission on NASA’s path to establishing a long-term presence for science and exploration through Artemis.

Leaders from NASA and the CSA (Canadian Space Agency), including NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman (right, center) and CSA President Lisa Campbell (left, center) meet during Artemis II wet dress rehearsal on Monday, Feb. 2, 2026, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The wet dress rehearsal allows the Artemis II launch team to run through operations to load propellant, conduct a full launch countdown, demonstrate the ability to recycle the countdown clock, and drain the tanks to practice timelines and procedures for launch. The Artemis II test flight will take Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA, around the Moon and back to Earth from Launch Complex 39B at NASA Kennedy.

Technicians are shown at NASA’s Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center in Florida in Florida on Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026, with one of two side flame deflectors that will be used to support NASA’s Artemis II launch. Each side flame deflector has two pillar-like extensible columns which are jacked into place to help support mobile launcher 1 when the vehicle is being fueled. During liftoff, the flame deflectors help contain the plume of the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket down into the flame trench.

The wet dress rehearsal allows the Artemis II launch team to run through operations to load propellant, conduct a full launch countdown, demonstrate the ability to recycle the countdown clock, and drain the tanks to practice timelines and procedures for launch. The Artemis II test flight will take Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch, from NASA and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA (Canadian Space Agency), around the Moon and back to Earth from Launch Complex 39B at NASA Kennedy.

Charlie Blackwell-Thompson, launch director, Exploration Ground Systems Program, participates in a news conference on Friday, Feb. 20, 2026, to discuss the completion of the Artemis II second wet dress rehearsal at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The wet dress rehearsal allows the Artemis II launch team to run through operations to load propellant, conduct a full launch countdown, demonstrate the ability to recycle the countdown clock, and drain the tanks to practice timelines and procedures for launch. The Artemis II test flight will take Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, and Mission Specialist Christina Koch from NASA, and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen from the CSA (Canadian Space Agency), around the Moon and back to Earth from Launch Complex 39B at NASA Kennedy.
