[i]Engineers at NASA's Kennedy Space Center are conducting a prelaunch test to fuel the Artemis II Space Launch System—a vital step in ensuring this rocket is ready for its upcoming trip around the Moon. During the rehearsal, teams will demonstrate the ability to load more than 700,000 gallons of cryogenic propellants into the rocket, conduct a launch countdown, and practice safely removing propellant from the rocket without astronauts inside the spacecraft. This is the second "wet dress rehearsal" test, following a previous rehearsal on Feb. 2. Teams are counting down to the opening of a simulated launch window at 8:30 p.m. EST on Feb. 19 (0130 Feb. 20 UTC), which could extend to up to four hours.[/i]
