The @NASA_SLS Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (ICPS) being stacked June 5th. It joined the launch vehicle stage adapter, core stage, and boosters on the mobile launcher in High Bay 3 of the Vehicle Assembly Building at @NASAKennedy for the upcoming launch of @NASAArtemis I.pic.twitter.com/hxRbdvxq0U
The ICPS is a liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen-based system that will fire its RL 10 engine to give the Orion spacecraft the big in-space push needed to fly tens of thousands of miles beyond the Moon.pic.twitter.com/41HHB7FwVS
The next component to be stacked on top of ICPS will be the Orion stage adapter, which will connect the ICPS with the spacecraft.pic.twitter.com/y9kBziPaJy
In this closer view, teams with Exploration Ground Systems and contractor @JacobsConnects integrate the interim cryogenic propulsion stage (ICPS) for @NASA_SLS with the launch vehicle stage adapter (LVSA) atop one of the 10 levels of platforms (20 halves) in High Bay 3.pic.twitter.com/iWh90w8RtQ
@ThePrimalDino they did it! :)
@pilliarscreatio do you know how this stage compares to Apollo stage 3 - in terms of mass, thrust, etc?
Produced this a few years ago. It’s weak when compared to an J-2 but about 4-5 times lighter.pic.twitter.com/bUJQxvJemk
I think I see the cubesat laumcheds on the rim of LVSA, I see 4 holders I think.
