Despite numerous setbacks, NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) is scheduled for another wet dress rehearsal on June 18 at Kennedy Space Center.

SLS, also referred to as the “Mega Moon Rocket,” has returned to Launch Pad 39B after a failed rehearsal attempt on April 5, due to temperature limit issues, a faulty core stage vent valve, and a small leak.
