The crowds are already being predicted, and now more than 100,000 spectators are expected to converge on the Space Coast when NASA launches the first Artemis Mission… which will lead to astronauts returning to the moon. Most area hotels are already sold out for the timing of the first launch window, which is set for August 29th at 8:33am. Backups are available September 2nd and September 5th… Labor Day. The massive rocket is 322 feet tall, making it the biggest, most powerful rocket to launch from the Space Coast in years.
