A NASA investigation of Boeing’s bungled 2024 flight to the International Space Station, which stranded two astronauts there, revealed rampant mistrust and insufficient testing.
During the first wet dress rehearsal on Monday, Feb. 2, teams uncovered a liquid hydrogen leak in an interface that is used to route the fuel into the SLS’s core stage. In fact, that was the same portion where a liquid hydrogen leak was found during the Artemis I mission back in 2022.
The four Crew-12 astronauts brought the International Space Station’s staff back to seven after a month of operating with three people on board.
The crew will spend the next eight months conducting experiments to prepare for human exploration beyond Earth's orbit.
