Water flowing out. Data flowing in.<\/p>\n

A water system activation at the Thad Cochran Test Stand (B-2) on Jan. 30 at NASA\u2019s Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, helped capture critical data to support testing a new SLS (Space Launch System) stage expected to fly on the Artemis IV mission.<\/p>\n

The activation milestone tested new cooling systems that were added for the future Green Run test series of NASA\u2019s exploration upper stage (EUS). The more powerful upper stage is a four-engine liquid hydrogen\/liquid oxygen in-space stage for the evolved Block 1B version of SLS.<\/p>\n
