Members of the media are invited to tour a new lunar landing simulation at @NASAAmes on Oct. 29 & 30.
Using simulators will give astronauts and engineering teams experience before crews pilot commercial human landing systems to the surface of the Moon.

Big move, bigger mission!
The Artemis III Space Launch System core stage moved to the transfer aisle at NASA Kennedy. Next up – teams will lift and integrate the massive 212-foot-rocket with the solid rocket boosters as we prepare for the next giant leap in lunar exploration.

An incredible day in Tuscaloosa with @SecRollins, from signing a new agreement between @NASA and @USDA and meeting with students at @UofAlabama to flying over a packed Bryant-Denny Stadium ahead of Alabama vs. Texas A&M.
The same spirit that takes us ius back to the Moon and inspire the next generation to take us even farther.
