[b]Artemis I rocket begins rollout to launchpad[/b] The Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft for the Artemis I mission are rolling to Launch Complex 39B at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida ahead of launch, currently targeted for Aug. 29. At 9:55 p.m. EDT (0155 GMT) the crawler-transporter began the 4.2-mile (6.8-km), journey from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). Once outside the VAB high-bay doors, the crawler transporter will make a planned pause allowing the team to reposition the crew access arm before continuing to the pad. The journey is expected to take between 8 and 12 hours.
