NASA Hosts Virtual Artemis Webinar for Blind, Low-Vision Community
Two technicians at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans stand around one of the four RS-25 engines on the core stage of the agency’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket on Sept. 8, 2023. The RS-25 engine test looks like a bell-shaped nozzle attached to a network of pipes. The engine is being held by the horizontal engine installer so it looks like it’s lying on its side. The RS-25 engine is about the size of a large pickup truck. The technicians are wearing hard hats and safety harnesses.Credit: NASA/Michael Democker
