NASA administrator Bill Nelson has described the upcoming Artemis I mission as "a tremendous turn of history" as the space agency prepares to launch its moon-bound Space Launch System (SLS) rocket for the first time ever.

On Monday morning, the 322-foot tall SLS rocket will finally take to the skies after around 12 years of development. Its mission is essentially a stress test; a demonstration that the rocket and its associated systems will be sufficient to take astronauts safely to the moon and back in just a few years' time.
