Rocket, Spacecraft Ahead of Tropical Storm Nicole, Re-targets Launch</h1> </header><!-- .entry-header --> <div class="entry-content"> <p>NASA is continuing to monitor Tropical Storm Nicole and has decided to re-target a launch for the Artemis I mission for Wednesday, Nov. 16, pending safe conditions for employees to return to work, as well as inspections after the storm has passed. Adjusting the target launch date will allow the workforce to tend to the needs of their families and homes, and provide sufficient logistical time to get back into launch status following the storm.</p> <p>Kennedy currently is in a HURCON (<a href="https://www.nasa.gov/content/hurricane-preparedness">Hurricane Condition</a>) III status, which includes securing facilities, property and equipment at the center, as well as briefing and deploying the “ride-out” team. As part of NASA’s hurricane preparedness protocol, a “ride-out” team includes a set of personnel who will remain in a safe location at Kennedy throughout the storm to monitor centerwide conditions, including the flight hardware for the Artemis I mission. Kennedy will release non-essential personnel at the HURCON II status as the agency continues to prioritize its employees in the Kennedy area.</p> <p>Based on expected weather conditions and options to roll back ahead of the storm, the agency <a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/2022/09/26/artemis-i-moon-rocket-departs-launch-pad-39b-ahead-of-hurricane-ian/">determined</a> Sunday evening the safest option for the launch hardware was to keep the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft secured at the pad.</p> <p>The SLS rocket is designed to withstand 85 mph (74.4 knot) winds at the 60-foot level with structural margin. Current forecasts predict the greatest risks at the pad are high winds that are not expected to exceed the SLS design. The rocket is designed to withstand heavy rains at the launch pad and the spacecraft hatches have been secured to prevent water intrusion.</p> <p>In preparation for the storm, teams have powered down the Orion spacecraft, SLS core stage, interim cryogenic propulsion stage, and boosters. Engineers have also installed a hard cover over the launch abort system window, retracted and secured the crew access arm on the mobile launcher and configured the settings for the environmental control system on the spacecraft and rocket elements. Teams also are securing nearby hardware and performing walkdowns for potential debris in the area.</p> <p>Teams are poised to resume work as soon as weather and Kennedy center status allows. Once back on-site, technicians will perform walkdowns and inspections at the pad to assess the status of the rocket and spacecraft as soon as practicable.</p> <p>A launch during a two-hour window that opens at 1:04 a.m. EST on Nov. 16 would result in a splashdown on Sunday, Dec. 11. If needed, NASA has a back-up launch opportunity on Saturday, Nov. 19, and will coordinate with the U.S. Space Force for additional launch opportunities.</p> <p>The agency continues to rely on the most up to date information from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Space Force, and the National Hurricane Center throughout its evaluations and continues to closely monitor conditions for the Kennedy area.</p> </div><!-- .entry-content --> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="byline"><span class="author vcard"><span class="screen-reader-text">Author </span> <a class="url fn n" href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/author/kahamble/">NASA</a></span></span><span class="posted-on"><span class="screen-reader-text">Posted on </span><a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/2022/11/08/nasa-prepares-rocket-spacecraft-ahead-of-tropical-storm-nicole-re-targets-launch/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2022-11-08T17:47:23-05:00">November 8, 2022 5:47 pm</time><time class="updated" datetime="2022-11-09T12:50:54-05:00">November 9, 2022 12:50 pm</time></a></span><span class="cat-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">Categories </span><a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/category/uncategorized/" rel="category tag">Uncategorized</a></span><span class="tags-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">Tags </span><a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/tag/artemis-i/" rel="tag">Artemis I</a></span> </footer><!-- .entry-footer --> </article><!-- #post-1596 --> <nav class="navigation post-navigation" aria-label="Posts"> <h2 class="screen-reader-text">Post navigation</h2> <div class="nav-links"><div class="nav-previous"><a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/2022/11/07/nasa-monitoring-subtropical-storm-nicole-space-launch-system-rocket-and-orion-to-remain-at-launch-pad-39b/" rel="prev"><span class="meta-nav" aria-hidden="true">Previous</span> <span class="screen-reader-text">Previous post:</span> <span class="post-title">NASA monitoring Subtropical Storm Nicole, Space Launch System rocket and Orion to remain at Launch Pad 39B</span></a></div><div class="nav-next"><a href="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/2022/11/11/teams-conduct-check-outs-preparations-ahead-of-next-artemis-i-launch-attempt/" rel="next"><span class="meta-nav" aria-hidden="true">Next</span> <span class="screen-reader-text">Next post:</span> <span class="post-title">Teams Conduct Check-outs, Preparations Ahead of Next Artemis I Launch Attempt</span></a></div></div> </nav> </main><!-- .site-main --> </div><!-- .content-area --> <aside id="secondary" class="sidebar widget-area"> <section id="media_image-3" class="widget widget_media_image"><img width="840" height="783" src="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01.png" class="image wp-image-735 attachment-full size-full" alt="Artemis logo" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01.png 2084w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-300x280.png 300w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-1024x954.png 1024w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-768x716.png 768w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-1536x1431.png 1536w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-2048x1908.png 2048w, https://blogs.nasa.gov/artemis/wp-content/uploads/sites/303/2022/01/Artemis-Logo-Color-Positive-CMYK-01-1200x1118.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px" /></section><section id="custom_html-3" class="widget_text widget widget_custom_html"><h2 class="widget-title">About</h2><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget">Artemis is the first step in the next era of human exploration.
