Blink and you’ll miss it: 11 hours of rolling out our Moon rocket in less than 60 seconds.

At 11:21 a.m. EDT, our @NASAArtemis II rocket and Orion spacecraft reached Launch Pad 39B after a 4‑mile journey from @NASAKennedy’s Vehicle Assembly Building. Traveling at a maximum speed of just 0.82 mph, our crawler-transporter 2 carried the 322‑foot‑tall Moon rocket slowly and steadily to the launch pad.

Next, teams are getting ready for the final checks before four astronauts launch on a journey around the Moon as early as Wednesday, April 1. The April launch window includes opportunities through Monday, April 6, as well as Thursday, April 30.
