NASA's Moon Rocket Ready for Historic Astronaut Launch After Decades

• NASA's moon rocket faces a trouble-free countdown for the first astronaut trip to the moon in over half a century.
• Officials report the rocket is performing well, with an 80% chance of favorable weather conditions.
• The four astronauts of the Artemis II mission will be the first lunar visitors since Apollo 17 in 1972, completing a flyby without landing.
• Previous launch attempts were delayed from February to April due to hydrogen fuel leaks and clogged helium lines.
• The launch team plans to fuel the 32-story Space Launch System rocket Wednesday morning for an evening send-off.
