Pegasus, which was modified to ferry SLS rocket hardware, will transport the core stage from Michoud to Stennis for the comprehensive core stage Green Run test series. Once at Stennis, the Artemis rocket stage will be loaded into the B-2 Test Stand for the core stage Green Run test series. The comprehensive test campaign will progressively bring the entire core stage, including its avionics and engines, to life for the first time to verify the stage is fit for flight ahead of the launch of Artemis I.","caption":"These images show how teams rolled out, or moved, the completed core stage for NASA\u2019s Space Launch System rocket from NASA\u2019s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans.
