There are similarities between launching a golf ball and sending NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket on its debut Artemis I mission. SLS will head to space with a maximum power of 8.8 million pounds of thrust, making it the world’s most powerful rocket and the only rocket capable of sending the Orion spacecraft to the Moon on a single mission. With Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the lunar surface and establish long-term exploration at the Moon in preparation for human missions to Mars. SLS and NASA’s Orion spacecraft, along with the human landing system and the Gateway in orbit around the Moon, are NASA’s foundation for deep space exploration. Over the years, NASA has contributed technology and innovation to the sport of golf.
