Apollo engineer recalls Saturn V hiccups, 'can hardly wait' for Artemis 1 launch
Apollo electronics engineer Ken Poimboeuf helped build the massive Saturn V rocket that took us to the moon more than 50 year ago. He said there were hiccups then, but NASA is known for getting the job done.

UCF researchers could develop the cure for hydrogen leak that grounded Artemis 1
Scientists at the University of Central Florida are working to create a composite material that they hope will prevent scrubs like the one that happened Sept. 3 on the Artemis launchpad because of a hydrogen leak.

NASA: Artemis I rocket launch still on, despite minor damage during Hurricane Nicole
While the Artemis I rocket suffered some minor damage while on the launch pad during Hurricane Nicole, NASA said Friday some of that damage had already been repaired – or will be repaired – and should not impact next week's planned launch at Florida's Kennedy Space Center.

NASA moon rocket back in hangar as Ian approaches Cape Canaveral
NASA’s moon rocket returned to the safety of its hangar Tuesday as Hurricane Ian approached Florida. Early Thursday morning, the National Hurricane Center adjusted the path for Hurricane Ian, shifting the storm just to the north of Kennedy Space Center. The hurricane was expected to be downgraded to a strong tropical storm before emerging over the Atlantic Ocean.
