CONT

Le lanceur SLS a été conçu pour envoyer à nouveau des êtres humains sur la Lune et leur permettre d'y vivre et d'y travailler. [...] La conception du lanceur SLS est faite pour évoluer selon la destination et les exigences de la mission. Il pourrait par exemple lancer Orion et d'autres charges utiles lourdes en même temps dans l'espace. Seul un lanceur SLS peut envoyer le vaisseau spatial Orion directement vers la Lune.

OBS

SLS : L'abréviation «SLS» provient du terme anglais «space launch system».
