The Space Launch System will be the largest, most powerful rocket that NASA has ever built. You’ll also need a spacecraft! NASA’s Orion is a unique and versatile spacecraft, one that is capable of taking astronauts into deep space and returning them safely home. For in-space exploration, you’ll need the Gateway. This outpost will orbit around the Moon and will be a stepping stone for astronauts to travel deeper into the solar system, returning knowledge and discovery back to our home planet.
