Subject field(s)
  • Launching and Space Maneuvering
CONT

During each lunar mission, the SLS [space launch system] will launch the crew in Orion to space and help set them on course to venture to the Moon. To do this, the SLS must have enough power to perform a manoeuvre known as a trans-lunar injection. This manoeuvre accelerates the spacecraft from its orbit around Earth onto a trajectory toward the Moon.

  • Lancement et manœuvres dans l'espace
CONT

Lors de chaque mission Artemis, le SLS [système de lancement spatial] lancera Orion dans l'espace. Il aidera aussi à le propulser sur la bonne trajectoire vers la Lune : c'est ce qu'on appelle une insertion translunaire. Pour cette manœuvre, le SLS doit avoir la puissance nécessaire pour accélérer la vitesse du vaisseau spatial et le faire passer de son orbite autour de la Terre sur sa trajectoire en direction de la Lune.
