SLS SRB test.

To support future flights of NASA’s powerful Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, NASA and Northrop Grumman, the SLS booster lead contractor, will conduct a full-scale Flight Support Booster (FSB-1) test in Promontory, Utah, on Sept. 2. The SLS rocket utilizes two, five-segment solid rocket boosters to help launch NASA’s Artemis missions to the Moon. NASA and Northrop Grumman have completed testing for the boosters used for the first three Artemis missions of the agency’s lunar program. FSB-1 builds upon prior tests of the rocket’s five-segment solid rocket booster to evaluate improvements and new materials in the boosters for missions beyond Artemis III. The test will be broadcast live on NASA TV and the agency’s website at 2:40 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, Sept. 2.
