About this work
Inside NASA’s iconic Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, teams from Exploration Ground Systems and contractor Jacobs mate the Orion Stage Adapter (OSA) to the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (ICPS) on top of the Space Launch System (SLS) on Oct. 9, 2021. The addition of the OSA marks the last piece of SLS rocket hardware to be added before crews soon add the Orion spacecraft and its launch abort system on top of the OSA.
