NASA conducted a test of its newly redesigned RS-25 engine for future flights of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.
The so-called " wet dress rehearsal " will load the Space Launch System with 700,000 gallons of ultra‑cold propellants at the rocket's Kennedy Space Center launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The trial run, now targeted for Monday, Feb. 2, takes the countdown all the way to 29 seconds before liftoff, then stops.
NASA fired up RS-25 engine No. 20001 at the Fred Haise Test Stand at NASA’s Stennis Space Center at Bay St. Louis, Mississippi.
