Video: LIVE: Utah’s Promontory Point launches test rocket for NASA’s Artemis III
Northrop Grumman is testing a new booster rocket that will be used in Artemis III at Promontory Point. The new booster will exert nearly 4 million pounds of thrust — 0.4 million pounds more than the current booster. It will create a “cool light show” in Utah skies as well as a lot of smoke and fire.
“(The new booster) addresses several different obsolescence issues that we have with the current boosters,” said Mark Pond, senior director of NASA Programs at Northrop Grumman.
