Artemis 1 Scrub 1 | What happened to Engine 3?, NASA learns their Rocket, SpaceX launches twice, and where to watch launches on the Florida Space Coast | The Balance

Listen Later

On this episode we are catching up after a busy, but scrub-filled week here in Florida. The first launch attempt for Artemis 1 scrubbed on Monday 8/29/22 originally due to an Engine 3 cooling issue. We discuss what went wrong and the balance that NASA has to strike as they learn their Space Launch System on the fly. Meanwhile, SpaceX launched twice while I've been here, once on the east coast and once on the west coast. Why is NASA having such a hard time? We go over all of that in the second half of the podcast.

In the first half we discuss my time here in Flordia, learning the ins-and-outs of attending a launch as a regular citizen, and I share my experience and advice for YOU the next time you decide to come to Florida's Space Coast for Artemis 2, 3 and beyond! There's lots of places to watch and some things to prepare for if/when you do.

We'll be camping out tonight for Artemis 1's second launch attempt on Saturday September 3rd, from 2:17PM-4:17PM ET. Weather is 60% GO! Follow us online for more content leading up to launch. LET'S GO ARTEMIS!
