BUT OF COURSE: NASA calls off Artemis 1 moon rocket launch on Sept. 27 due to Tropical Storm Ian. “NASA won’t try to thread the weather needle with its Artemis 1 moon mission after all. The space agency had been targeting Tuesday (Sept. 27) for the launch of Artemis 1 from Kennedy Space Center (KSC), on Florida’s Atlantic coast. That remained the plan as recently as Friday (Sept. 23), though NASA officials stressed that they were keeping a close eye on a brewing storm in the Caribbean called Tropical Depression 9.”
