Why NASA called off its Moon rocket launch

NASA calls off its Moon rocket launch in Florida, leaving fans furious

NASA has called off its highly anticipated Moon rocket launch following technical difficulties.

Those in charge of the mission were unable to cool down an engine to its correct temperature, and therefore had no choice but to call off the flight.

This final decision followed concerns earlier in the day relating to a suspected crack, which was later determined to be just a bit of frost.

The SLS is the biggest rocket NASA has ever created and represents an exciting new era of space travel.

It will eventually be used to send astronauts back to the Moon, including the first woman and person of colour.

The maiden flight is set to be a test launch with no crew on board, and the new launch date could be as early as September 2, 2022.
