Rocket Lab Space Structures Complex Update 2 October 23, 2026 Middle River, Maryland Crews were working today in preparation for moving hardware to Wallops. A crane is now on-site at the lagoon and the blue transport trailer has been hooked to the truck. Given the pace of work, it didn't seem like they would be loading anything today. I'll be checking back over the next few days. While in the area, I did see work being done on the thrust module stand and caught some interesting hardware moving from one area of the facility to another. @NASASpaceflight

Most extensive Artemis update ever? Possibly! Also, on the below, @dwisecinema asked about it, and Jared agrees and will look into it!
Live VAB transfer aisle cam would be cool if it were for more than this event! Like we had during Shuttle.

In April, they started a process to redesign the TSM (Tail Service Mast) umbilicals. Remember, they've had some LH2 leak issues.
