Artemis 1, officially Artemis I and formerly Exploration Mission-1 (EM-1), is an ongoing uncrewed Moon-orbiting mission. As the first major spaceflight of NASA's Artemis program, Artemis 1 marks the return of the agency to lunar exploration as established by the Apollo mission decades earlier. It is the first integrated flight test of the Orion spacecraft and Space Launch System (SLS) rocket. Artemis 1 was successfully launched from Kennedy Space Center on November 16, 2022, at 06:47:44 UTC (01:47:44 EST). Its main objective is to test the Orion spacecraft, especially its heat shield, in preparation for subsequent Artemis missions. These missions seek to reestablish a human presence on the Moon and demonstrate technologies and business approaches needed for future scientific studies, including exploration of Mars.
