The Core Stage of NASA’s first Space Launch System (SLS) vehicle arrived at the Kennedy Space Center and was moved into the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) on April 29 to prep for stacking with the new launch vehicle’s Solid Rocket Boosters, which are already in place on the Mobile Launcher in High Bay 3.
Approximately six months of work is anticipated to finish assembly and complete a long series of tests and checkouts of SLS and the Orion spacecraft it will send to the Moon, but current forecasts of this first-time integration work estimate closer to ten months to complete the necessary operations. After the vehicle is put together, weeks and weeks of testing to make sure SLS and Orion are properly talk ....

Aerojet Rocketdyne refurbishing RS-25 engines for Artemis 1 launch and production restart testing
April 9, 2021
With the completion of another single-engine RS-25 development test, Aerojet Rocketdyne is now refurbishing five engines at the Stennis Space Center in Mississippi for their next use. After the second test firing of the Retrofit 2 series in the A-1 Test Stand on April 6, development engine 0528 is going through a streamlined refurbishment prior to its next firing as a part of the production restart Retrofit 2 test series.
In parallel, the four RS-25 engines installed on the first Space Launch System (SLS) Core Stage in the nearby B Test Stand are being taken through a longer refurbishment checklist for flight engine hardware. The next planned ignition for those Core Stage engines is for the first SLS launch on the Artemis 1 mission to send an Orion spacecraft to lunar orbit. ....
