>NASA's Artemis II moon mission has been delayed for a second time after several last–minute issues were spotted on the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
After successfully completing the second wet dress rehearsal last Thursday, hopes had been high that the historic moon mission would launch in March.
However, NASA administrator Jared Isaacman now says the March launch window is 'out of consideration'.
That means Artemis II will not take its crew – Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen – around the moon until April 1 at the very earliest.
Mr Isaacman says that the reason for the delay is an 'interruption in helium flow in the SLS interim cryogenic propulsion stage'.
