NASA launches Artemis moon rocket after several setbacks | DW News

NASA launched its most powerful rocket ever on Wednesday as part of the Artemis mission to reach the moon. The 32-story Space Launch System (SLS) rocket launched from Cape Canaveral at 1:47 local time (0647 GMT/UTC). NASA estimated 15,000 spectators gathered at the launch site. The crowd burst into cheers as the ground rumbled and the rocket lifted off.
It was the launch attempt for the multibillion-dollar rocket after 10 weeks of technical mishaps and back-to-back hurricanes repeatedly delayed the launch.
