Artemis nasa launch7/7/2023 It would not have been possible without the hundreds of Moog team members who worked on Artemis and whose talent and dedication continue to drive Moog’s innovation for the next generation of space travel,” said Maureen Athoe, Moog Space and Defense Group President. “This is a mission about people building a path to the Moon and beyond. More than 500 Moog employees across the United States have contributed to Artemis 1. Additional Moog technology areas supporting the Artemis mission include avionics, environmental control and life support, propulsion, and spacecraft mechanisms. The Moog team designed, built, and tested several components essential to the mission. The primary goal of Artemis 1 is to test all the systems with complicated maneuvers before astronauts fly Artemis 2, which is scheduled for no earlier than 2024. This is the first integrated test of NASA’s deep space exploration systems, which include the SLS rocket, Orion Crew Capsule, and Ground Systems at Kennedy Space Center. Moog actuators and controllers are responsible for controlling that power by precisely positioning the engines to steer all stages of the SLS rocket.Īrtemis 1 is the first in a series of increasingly complex missions to build a long-term human presence on the lunar surface. The rocket is the most powerful ever built, putting off 8.8 million pounds of thrust and traveling nearly 23,000 miles per hour. The Space Launch System (SLS) rocket lifted off from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida early this morning. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B) announced today that the company’s space products played a critical role in successfully launching Artemis 1, which is the first uncrewed test flight of NASA’s mission to return to the Moon.
