About this work

The Artemis I aft skirts for the NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket’s twin solid rocket boosters are moved along the road to the Rotation, Processing and Surge Facility (RPSF) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 10, 2020. In the background is the iconic Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). The aft skirts were refurbished by Northrop Grumman. They house the thrust vector control system, which controls 70 percent of the steering during initial ascent of the SLS rocket.
