The core stage of NASA's most ambitious megarocket, the massive Space Launch System (SLS), has left its New Orleans home for an epic journey of a space voyage. The main objective of SLS is to ferry astronauts to the moon and other distant destinations. Before that, NASA will be testing out an unmanned rocket first. NASA is hoping to run the test flight – called Artemis 1 – by the end of 2020 or early 2021.
