The rocket was meant to carry the agency's uncrewed Orion capsule into space, where it would then make its journey around the Moon and back.
A lot is at stake, especially with SpaceX's in-development Starship and its accompanying Super Heavy Booster representing a potentially cheaper alternative to NASA's expensive rocket, if they prove flightworthy. NASA has yet to announce when it will next attempt to launch the behemoth rocket. While the agency does have several backup launch windows, including September 2 and 5, we won't know until later if NASA will have enough time to address the issues.reports
