Engineers at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center are conducting a prelaunch test to fuel the Artemis II Space Launch System—a vital step in ensuring this rocket is ready for its upcoming trip around the Moon.

During the rehearsal, teams will demonstrate the ability to load more than 700,000 gallons of cryogenic propellants into the rocket, conduct a launch countdown, and practice safely removing propellant from the rocket without astronauts inside the spacecraft.

Programming for this static feed begins at 11:30 a.m. EST (1630 UTC) on Feb. 2. The rehearsal will count down to a simulated launch at 9 p.m. EST (0200 Feb. 3 UTC), but could run to approximately 1 a.m. (0600 UTC) if needed.

Coverage for this broadcast will feature a single live feed camera view of the rocket at the launch pad that will include graphics, as various teams are using the test to practice operations ahead of launch.
