NASA Artemis V Moon Rocket Engine Test#7: Preparing for Crewed Missions
An Aerojet Rocketdyne RS-25 rocket engine (RS-25 developmental engine E0525) was tested on the Fred Haise Test Stand (formerly A-1 Test Stand) at the John C. Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, on February 23, 2024, at 13:04 Central Standard Time (19:04 UTC).
This was the seventh hot fire test out of the 12 planned in the final round of certification testing ahead of production of an updated set of engines for NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) that will be used beginning with Artemis V.
The test had a planned duration of 550 seconds, with the RS-25 engine running up to 113% power level, more than the level needed to power SLS.
