Artemis I launch team members celebrate the successful launch of NASA’s Space Launch System and Orion spacecraft on Nov. 16, 2022, with the traditional meal of beans and cornbread inside Firing Room 1 of the Launch Control Center at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Liftoff was at 1:47 EST. The first in a series of increasingly complex missions, Artemis I will provide a foundation for human deep space exploration and demonstrate our commitment and capability to extend human presence to the Moon and beyond. The primary goal of Artemis I is to thoroughly test the integrated systems before crewed missions by operating the spacecraft in a deep space environment, testing Orion’s heat shield, and recovering the crew module after reentry, descent, and splashdown.
