Artemis III Liquid Oxygen Tank Prepares for Forward Join

Move crews at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans move the liquid oxygen tank for the core stage of the agency’s Artemis III mission into the facility’s vertical assembly building on Nov.3. Eventually, teams with SLS (Space Launch System) prime contractor, Boeing, will lift the tank into the production cell currently housing the intertank and mate the flight hardware together before capping them off with the forward skirt to complete the core stage forward join.
