NASA Rolls Back Artemis II Moon Rocket for Repairs, Launch Delayed to April

NASA began moving its Artemis II Moon rocket from the launch pad back to the Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center on February 25 for repairs. The rollback, expected to take up to 12 hours over a 6.4-kilometer route, addresses a helium pressurisation system malfunction and includes replacing batteries in the flight termination system. Originally targeting a March launch, the crewed lunar fly-around mission is now delayed until at least April, with safety and reliability prioritized.
