NASA has announced that it has resolved the technical issues of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, which will be used in the Artemis 2 mission, scheduled for April.

Engineers have found a solution to restore the flow of helium to the upper stage of the rocket, essential for pressurizing the fuel tanks. The rocket and the Orion capsule are located in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) in Florida, after being pulled from the launch pad due to technical issues. The next launch windows are scheduled for April 1, 3-6, and 30, and the engineering team continues system checks.

Additionally, NASA has announced a restructuring of the Artemis program, moving the Artemis 3 mission, which will include astronauts on the Moon, to 2028.
