On Aug. 24, technicians at NASA\u2019s Kennedy Space Center in Florida began installing the four RS\u201125 engines in the core stage of the agency\u2019s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket that will carry the Artemis III <\/a>crew into low Earth orbit in 2027.<\/p>\n

Each RS\u201125 engine has a unique serial number that records its detailed flight history. The four engines assigned to Artemis III \u2014 E2054, E2057, E2048, and E2052 \u2014 previously powered multiple space shuttle missions. Engine 2048 helped launch NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik\u2019s earlier mission aboard space shuttle Atlantis<\/a> during STS\u2011129. It also flew on Space Shuttle Discovery during STS\u201195 in 1998, the mission that returned 77-year\u2011old space pioneer U.S. Sen. John Glenn<\/a> to orbit, making him the oldest person to fly in space at that time.<\/p>\n
