[b]Where to See the Artemis I Mission Liftoff to the Moon[/b] When NASA's Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft launch on the uncrewed Artemis I flight test to the moon, it will be visible along the Space Coast and throughout parts of Florida for a brief minute or so. NASA is targeting the next launch attempt of the Artemis I mission for Wednesday, Nov. 16 during a 120-minute launch window that opens at 1:04 a.m. EST. Weather permitting, the bright light from the plumes of the moon rocket's twin solid rocket boosters and four RS-25 engines could be seen against the dark night sky for up to 70 seconds after liftoff from NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The rocket and spacecraft will no longer be visible to the naked eye after reaching an altitude of 42,000 feet. Launch visibility is dependent upon several factors, including launch time and dates.
