@kari.the.cleric: Is this niche yet? The Space Launch System (SLS) is an American two-stage super heavy-lift expendable launch vehicle used by NASA. The primary launch vehicle for the Artemis program, SLS is designed to launch the four-person Orion spacecraft. The rocket first launched in November 2022, carrying the uncrewed Artemis I mission. Its only crewed launch has been for the Artemis II lunar flyby in April 2026, becoming the second launch vehicle to carry humans beyond low Earth orbit (LEO), after NASA's Saturn V of the Apollo program. On the 1st of April 2026 Orion launched with four astronauts on board: Ried Wiseman (commander), Victor Glover (pilot), Christina Hammock Koch (mission specialist) and Jeremy Hansen (mission specialist).
