Nasa's mega Moon rocket arrives at launch pad for Artemis II mission

Artemis II: Nasa's mega Moon rocket arrives at launch pad

Final preparations now get underway for the first crewed mission to the Moon in more than 50 years.

Now it is in position, the final tests, checks - and a dress rehearsal - will take place, before the go-ahead is given for the 10-day Artemis II mission that will see four astronauts travel around the Moon.

Nasa says the earliest the rocket can blast off is 6 February, but there are also more launch windows later that month, as well as in March and April.
