Iyo chirongwa chekuyedza chakadaidzira roketi ina maRS-25 engines kuti ipise kweanopfuura maminetsi masere - iyo yakafanana nguva ichatora kutumira roketi kunzvimbo ichitevera kuvhurwa. Chikwata chakabudirira kupedzisa kuverenga uye chakabatidza injini, asi injini dzakadzima zvishoma kudarika miniti imwe mumoto unopisa. Matimu ari kuongorora iyo data kuti aone chakakonzera kumiswa kwekutanga, uye achaona nzira yekumberi.
Yezve bvunzo, iyo 212-tsoka core nhanho yakaburitswa 1.6 miriyoni mapaundi ekusundidzira, ichisungirirwa muB-2 Bvunzo Imira paNASA Stennis Space Center padyo neBay St.Louis, Mississippi. Iyo inopisa moto bvunzo yaisanganisira kurodha 733,000 mapaundi emvura okisijeni uye emvura hydrogen - mirroring iyo yekutanga countdown maitiro - uye kupisa injini.
"Kuedzwa kweMugovera raive danho rakakosha kumberi rekuona kuti danho repakati reSLS roketi rakagadzirira basa raArtemis I, uye kutakura vashandi kumishoni dzeramangwana," akadaro Administrator weNASA Jim Bridenstine, uyo akapinda pamuedzo uyu. "Kunyange hazvo injini dzisina kupfura kwenguva yese, chikwata chakabudirira pakuverenga, chakabatidza injini, uye chakawana ruzivo rwakakosha kuzivisa nzira yedu."
Makirabhu ekutsigira mudunhu reStennis bvunzo akapa mweya wepamusoro-kumhepo kustest test, akaendesa magetsi ese anoshanda, akapa anopfuura marita emvura mazana matatu nemakumi matatu paminiti kudzivirira bvunzo yemoto deflector uye nekuona kusimba kwedanho repakati, uye yakatorwa dhata inodiwa kuti uongorore musimboti wedanho maitiro
"Kuona injini dzese ina dzichitungidza kekutanga panguva yepakati padanho moto moto bvunzo raive danho rakakura kuchikwata cheSpace Launch System" akadaro John Honeycutt, maneja wechirongwa cheSLS paNASA Marshall Space Flight Center muHuntsville, Alabama. "Tichaongorora data, uye zvatakadzidza kubva pamuedzo wanhasi zvichatibatsira kuronga nzira yekumberi yekusimbisa danho idzva iri rekugadzirira kutiza paAtemisi I mission."
The Green Kumhanya nhevedzano yemiedzo yakatanga muna Ndira 2020, apo danho rakaunzwa kubva kuNASA's Michoud Assembly Facility muNew Orleans uye ndokumisikidzwa muB-2 bvunzo yekuStennis. Chikwata chakapedzisa chekutanga chemiedzo misere muGreen Run akateedzana asati amira pasi munaKurume nekuda kwechirwere checoronavirus chiri kuenderera mberi. Mushure mekutangazve basa muna Chivabvu, timu yakashanda kuburikidza nemiyedzo yakasara mune akateedzana, ichimirawo pasi nguva nenguva semadutu matanhatu emvura kana madutu akakanganisa Gulf Coast. Yese bvunzo yakavakirwa pamuedzo wekare nekuwedzera kuomarara kuongorora masisitimu akaomesesa masystem, uye bvunzo yemoto unopisa iyo yakavhenekesa injini dzese ina yaive bvunzo yekupedzisira mu dzakatevedzana.
"Stennis haasati aona huwandu hwesimba uhwu kubva pakuyedzwa kwematanho eSaturn V muma1960," akadaro Director weStennis Center Rick Gilbrech. “Stennis ndiyo premier rocket propulsion facility yakayedza Saturn V yekutanga neyechipiri nhanho dzakatakura vanhu kuenda kuMwedzi panguva yeApollo Program, uye ikozvino, moto unopisa uyu ndosaka tichiedza sekubhururuka uye kubhururuka sezvatinoedza. Tichadzidza kubva pakuvharwa kwanhasi, kuona chero zvigadziriso kana zvichidikanwa, toenderera mberi. ”
Kunze kwekuongorora iyo data, zvikwata zvakare zvinoongorora danho repakati uye ayo mana RS-25 injini vasati vatora matanho anotevera. Pasi pe Artemis chirongwa, NASA iri kushanda kumhara mukadzi wekutanga uye murume anotevera paMwedzi muna 2024. SLS uye Orion chitundumuseremusere icho chichatakura vanoenda muchadenga, pamwe nehurongwa hwekumhara kwevanhu neGateway mukutenderera kwakatenderedza Mwedzi, ndiwo musana weNASA yekutsvaga kwakadzama kwenzvimbo ..
