SpaceLaunch System (SLS)
The Space Launch System (SLS) is NASA’s most powerful rocket designed to carry astronauts and cargo beyond Earth’s orbit, primarily to the Moon and future destinations like Mars. It features a core stage with large fuel tanks and powerful engines, along with solid rocket boosters for extra thrust. The SLS is built to support deep space exploration, providing the heavy lift capacity needed for large spacecraft and scientific equipment. It’s a key part of NASA’s Artemis program, aiming to return humans to the Moon and explore further into the solar system with advanced rocket technology.
