From April 1-4, the Artemis I launch team is conducting the wet dress rehearsal test at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Ahead of the Artemis I flight test, the wet dress rehearsal will run the launch team through operations to load propellant, conduct a full launch countdown, demonstrate the ability to recycle the countdown clock, and drain the tanks to practice timelines and procedures for launch.
