Significant challenges remain before NASA attempts to launch humans into space during future Artemis mission
NASA previously announced the earliest Artemis II could launch would be September 2025. The report said by launch date, NASA will have spent more than $55 billion on the program. Premature preparation of the Space Launch System could lead to increased delays beyond the 2025 launch date.

Voyager 1: NASA may have just managed to save its historic spacecraft
Voyager 1 and 2 launched in 1977 and are NASA’s oldest and most distant robotic space travelers. An issue with Voyager 1’s code that began in November meant the spacecraft was unable to send back data from interstellar space. After some creative engineering to find a solution, Voyager teams got the first usable data from the spacecraft on April 20.
