Did you forget the Artemis 2 mission?
Starship appears to be a source of delays, not SLS.
- bryanlarsen 3y agoThe gating factor for Artemis 3 (not 2) appears to be the space suits, not Starship.
- avhon1 3y agoI did not forget Artemis. Artemis 2 will not require Starship; it's just the Orion capsule going around the moon and back. Starship Human Landing System won't be needed until Artemis 3, which is currently scheduled for December 2025. That is a lot of time use to get Starship in shape to operate beyond Earth, and even if it isn't enough, won't result in the cancellation of the Artemis project.
