Restoring Apollo-era heritage for the next generation of spaceflight
In short: Follow Deputy Administrator Lori Garver through the Gulf Coast as she inspects the critical facilities powering NASA's newest missions, from the SLS to commercial crew partnerships.
The video documents a tour of two essential NASA sites in the Gulf Coast region. At the Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans, Garver reviewed progress regarding the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System (SLS) programs.
In Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, the tour visits the Stennis Space Center. A highlight includes the B-2 test stand, a structure once used for Apollo-era engine testing that is currently being restored to test the SLS core stage.
