These photos and videos show the barge as it traveled down the Intracoastal Waterway to the Gulf of Mexico. Pegasus ferried the Artemis II core stage more than 900 miles to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It arrived with the flight hardware July 22. The barge is maintained at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, where the core stage is fully manufactured. NASA is working to land the first woman, first person of color, and its first international partner astronaut on the Moon under Artemis. SLS is part of NASA’s backbone for deep space exploration, along with the Orion spacecraft, supporting ground systems, advanced spacesuits and rovers, the Gateway in orbit around the Moon, and commercial human landing systems. SLS is the only rocket that can send Orion, astronauts, and supplies to the Moon in a single launch. 🎥Credits:NASA
