KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — NASA’s next mission to the Moon just took a big step forward. Crews at Kennedy Space Center just connected the massive core stage of the Artemis II rocket to its boosters.

“The stage is the backbone of the rocket, supporting the launch vehicle ... II mission.” NASA’s successful Artemis I mission flew an uncrewed Orion spacecraft around the moon in 2022.

Technicians have joined the core stage with the stacked solid rocket boosters for the mission at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

NASA and SpaceX late Monday said they were standing down the launch of the SPHEREx and PUNCH spacecraft missions due to unfavorable weather at the launch site and an issue with one of the spacecrafts.

Nasa's Artemis II mission is advancing, with technicians successfully integrating key components of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket at Florida's Kennedy Space Center.
