On Monday August 29, 2022, the Artemis rocket was scheduled to take off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA. But the launch has been postponed. The new take-off date is not yet known.
Since the weekend of August 27 and 28, NASA has kept the public spellbound. She promised a takeoff, Monday, August 29, of her mega rocket for the Moon. But a technical problem forced the teams to postpone the mission. No specific date has yet been announced. This is a big disappointment for those who came to watch the show in Cape Canaveral, Florida (USA). “We camped here all night to make sure we were there”deplores an American. “Today was not our day, but we don’t despair for the days to come”prefers to philosophize another.
The disappointment is shared by Thomas Pesquet, who came as a spectator, but for him it is not a surprise. “It’s very regular. Even in the days of the space shuttle, there were postponements almost every flight. Few flights left on the first try”analyzes the Frenchman.
