He/Him...you don't like me using pronouns then you probably don't know what a pronoun is.

@1Nicdar @DemocraticWins So says the racist

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This speech should terrify anyone who cares about our country.

Declaring war on our nation’s cities and using our troops as political pawns is what dictators do.

This man cares about nothing but his own ego and power.

@Yankees You guys are seriously fucked up. You gonna honor a racist and bigoted pice of shit?

🚨🚨HERE IT IS: We got Trump’s birthday note to Jeffrey Epstein that the President said doesn’t exist.

Trump talks about a “wonderful secret” the two of them shared. What is he hiding? Release the files!

Patch Reveal! @NASA has unveiled the design of Artemis II's mission patch. What do you think?

[ARCHIVED: NASA's Exploration Ground Systems @NASAGroundSys]

Last week, teams with Exploration Ground Systems stacked the left forward segment of the @NASA_SLS solid rocket boosters onto mobile launcher 1 in the Vehicle Assembly Building. This is the ninth of 10 motor segments to be stacked for the @NASAArtemis II mission.

[ARCHIVED: NASA's Exploration Ground Systems @NASAGroundSys]

The final @NASA_SLS solid rocket booster segment for the @NASAArtemis II mission has entered the Vehicle Assembly Building at @NASAKennedy! With this transport of the right forward segment, all booster hardware is now in the same building.

10 out of 10! 🙌

This week, teams with Exploration Ground Systems stacked the right forward segment, the tenth motor segment of the @NASA_SLS solid rocket boosters. The stacked segments are nearing their final height of 177ft tall.

To complete booster stacking, teams will stack the forward assemblies, which were transported to the Vehicle Assembly Building in January.

Boosters: complete ✅

With stacking of the right forward assembly, the @NASA_SLS solid rocket boosters for the @NASAArtemis II mission are complete. In total, teams with Exploration Ground Systems transported and stacked ten motor segments and two forward assemblies to fully configure the boosters.

Next to stack on mobile launcher 1 is the core stage, which is currently undergoing processing in High Bay 2 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at @NASAKennedy.

ICYMI

Last week, teams with Exploration Ground Systems completed stacking of the @NASAArtemis II @NASA_SLS solid rocket boosters by integrating the forward assemblies. These 177-foot-tall and 12-foot-wide boosters will provide 3.5 million pounds of thrust each during launch.

Going up? 🔼

Mobile launcher 2 continues to gain height with the installation of the latest tower module, mod 5. The new launcher will support the @NASA_SLS Block 1B for missions @NASAArtemis IV and beyond. This mod, along with six others, is wider, contains a repositioned elevator shaft, and has shock isolators for equipment enclosures, all to better endure the forces of launch.

Exploration Ground Systems teams are preparing for Underway Recovery Test 12. @NASAArtemis II mission specialist @Astro_Christina explains the operation.

[ARCHIVED: NASA's Exploration Ground Systems @NASAGroundSys]

Over the weekend, the interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS) for the @NASAArtemis II mission arrived at @NASAKennedy! Teams delivered the stage to the Multi-Payload Processing Facility from United Launch Alliance’s Delta Operations Center at neighboring Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

[ARCHIVED: NASA's Exploration Ground Systems @NASAGroundSys]

After United Launch Alliance transported the @NASAArtemis II interim cryogenic propulsion stage to @NASAKennedy, teams passed the baton to Exploration Ground Systems, officially handing over the hardware.

The 45-foot-tall stage will provide in-space propulsion after the @NASA_SLS solid rocket boosters and core stage are jettisoned and give @NASA_Orion the big push needed to fly beyond the Moon before the spacecraft returns to Earth.

[ARCHIVED: NASA's Exploration Ground Systems @NASAGroundSys]

To prepare for stacking, teams lifted the @NASA_SLS core stage for the crewed @NASAArtemis II mission out of the Vehicle Assembly Building’s High Bay 2 and positioned it horizontally in the transfer aisle.

[ARCHIVED: NASA_SLS @NASA_SLS]

Technicians with @NASAGroundSys recently finished stacking the SLS solid rocket boosters for @NASAArtemis II.

Watch as teams in the Vehicle Assembly Building at @NASAKennedy assemble the boosters, which will provide 75% of the thrust needed at liftoff.

Teams with Exploration Ground Systems and the @DeptofDefense prepare for @NASA’s Underway Recovery Test 12. Personnel loaded the Crew Module Test Article onto the USS Somerset at @USNavy Base San Diego.

The article is a full-scale mock-up of the @NASA_Orion spacecraft, which is used to practice recovery procedures for @NASAArtemis missions.

We're rolling! 🎥

Exploration Ground Systems teams are preparing to stack the @NASAArtemis II @NASA_SLS core stage onto mobile launcher 1.

Teams repositioned the core stage using self-propelled modular transporters to roll it in front of the Vehicle Assembly Building's High Bay 3. Teams have also been staging platforms in the high bay, preparing the cranes for lifting, and ensuring the boosters are ready to receive the core stage.
