Take a Ride on Artemis Astronaut Launchpad Emergency Escape System | NASA

Take a Ride on Artemis Astronaut Launchpad Emergency Escape System | NASA

Take a look inside one of the emergency egress baskets at Launch Pad 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida for the Artemis missions. In the event of an emergency at the pad during the launch countdown, these baskets, similar to gondolas on ski lifts, will take the astronauts and pad personnel safely from the mobile launcher to the base of the pad where emergency transport vehicles will drive them away.

Four astronauts will venture around the Moon in the Orion spacecraft on Artemis II. It will be the first crewed mission on NASA's path to establishing a long-term presence at the Moon for science and exploration through the Artemis campaign.
