Summary
| Description | Teams with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems have lifted and moved the gigantic core stage booster onto the Mobile Launcher platform, followed closely by the Launch Vehicle Stage Adapter (LVSA) and interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS). The core stage, with the twin side boosters, will generate 8.8 million pounds of thrust at liftoff, and the LVSA will support the upper stage of the Moon rocket during launch and ascent. The four-story propulsion system will enable the Orion spacecraft to build up enough speed for the push toward the Moon during the Artemis II crewed test flight.
