Powerful Solid Rocket Booster Segments for NASA SLS Artemis 1 Moon Mission Arrive at Kennedy Space Center: Photos

A train transporting all 10 solid rocket booster segments loaded in 10 special railcars for NASA’s Space Launch System rocket for the Artemis 1 moon mission arrives just outside NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 15, 2020. They were delivered to the center’s Rotation, Processing and Surge Facility (RPSF) after departing June 5 from Northrop Grumman’s manufacturing facility in Utah. They were delivered by the ‘Shuttle Wagon’ that once brought the space shuttle boosters onto Kennedy along the same tracks. Credit: Ken Kremer/kenkremer.com/spaceupclose.com
