NASA forgoes crew on first Space Launch System mission, slips flight to 2019 [i]The first launch of NASA's new heavy-lift rocket will forgo an astronaut crew, space agency officials announced on Friday (May 12). NASA nixed the idea of adding astronauts to its previously uncrewed Exploration Mission-1 (EM-1) after completing a study into what it would take to carry a crew on the maiden flight of the Space Launch System (SLS). Further, agency officials confirmed that the uncrewed EM-1 mission will slip from late 2018 to sometime in 2019.[/i]
