NASA continues to evaluate data and learn more about the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket's debut performance during the agency's Nov. 16 Artemis I launch. Following an initial data assessment and review that determined the SLS rocket met or exceeded all performance expectations, SLS engineers are now taking a closer look at the Moon rocket's performance to prepare for the first crewed Artemis missions.
