#Artemis #NASA #SLS Still planned hold. No estimate on terminal count
#ICPS upper stage at 95% LH2
Rest of the tanks are at topping mode

#Artemis #NASA #SLS

All four tanks are full and in replenish mode.

#Artemis #NASA #SLS No additional risk of caulk falling off and causing damage.

Red box shows darker area when RPV "Caulk" was peeled off during hurricane

still got more than an hour of wiggle room. Got a 2 hour Launch window and GODAMMIT we are going to use all of it!

wondering if the #SLS uses a soft or hard caulk and if you need 2 hands to apply it.

yes i am getting a bit punchy

NOMINAL LAUNCH of #SLS

@Kinnison

He really go into the adderall then.

@Kinnison Just as long as they don't accidentally blow up the rocket while they're testing to see if they can blow up the rocket. It doesn't need to be that exciting.
