ALT The Orion crew and service modules for NASA’s Artemis III mission are shown mated in a workstation in the Operations and Checkout Building at the agency's Kennedy Space Center. The view shows some of the crew module’s exposed wiring and structural elements on the upper section and the white exterior of the service module below, all surrounded by work platforms, railings, signs, and facility hardware.

ALT Inside the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, a team of technicians works around an RS‑25 rocket engine being offloaded for the Artemis III mission. The engine sits on a support stand, showing its complex components. Several technicians stand and climb on the stand to guide the hardware, with one handing a tool upward. The background includes white structural beams, ventilation ducts, and bright yellow overhead crane rails under high‑bay lighting. Credit: NASA/Frank Michaux
ALT Inside the large high‑bay at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, the cylindrical spacer for the Artemis III SLS (Space Launch System) is suspended above the Vertical Weld Tool after technicians completed the final friction stir weld on its barrel section. The silver‑metal barrel is lifted by an overhead crane, positioned between tall blue support columns and weld equipment. The facility’s bright yellow crane rails, structural ceiling trusses, an American flag, and a large banner showing the SLS rocket are visible in the background. Credit: NASA/Sam Lott
ALT Inside NASA’s Rotation, Processing and Surge Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, technicians guide the lift of a right‑center solid rocket booster segment for the Artemis III SLS (Space Launch System). The cylindrical booster segment, marked with the red NASA “worm” logo, hangs vertically from an overhead crane above a yellow work stand. Structural beams, metal wall panels, and a large American flag are visible in the high‑bay background as ground support equipment surrounds the booster. Credit: NASA/Ben Smegelsky

ALT The Artemis II Orion crew module sits on a stand inside the Multi-Payload Processing Facility at NASA\u2019s Kennedy Space Center. Several technicians stand on mobile platforms and ladders around the spacecraft, inspecting its darkened exterior. Additional personnel stand nearby with tripods and equipment. The room contains tools, hardware, and machinery arranged around the perimeter, with white walls and a high ceiling. Photo credit: NASA/Ben Smegelsky
