NASA's long-anticipated Artemis 2 mission — the first crewed flight around the moon in more than half a century — could lift off as soon as April 1. But if you're hoping to watch it live online, you'll need to know when to tune in and for that, we've got you covered.
The Artemis 2 mission is currently scheduled to lift off at 6:24 p.m. EDT (2224 GMT) on April 1 aboard NASA's powerful Space Launch System (SLS) rocket from Pad 39B at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. It will send four astronauts on a roughly 10-day journey around the moon and safely back to Earth on board the Orion capsule.
The launch window for Artemis 2 opens on April 1 and runs through April 6, with opportunities available each day. But the actual launch time could change depending on the day. Read on below to see when to tune in over the next few days of the mission, leading to liftoff. Check out our Artemis 2 mission updates page for the latest developments.
