NASA put on a light show sending the Artemis I mission on a record-breaking launch from Kennedy Space Center in Florida early Wednesday morning.
Despite yet another liquid hydrogen leak headache and a new worry from a malfunctioning radar down range, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was able to work through countdown issues to send the Space Launch System rocket and its 8.8 million pounds of thrust up into space at 1:47 a.m. Eastern time.
It makes SLS the most powerful rocket to ever successfully launch into space.
