内容总结：

美国国家航空航天局（NASA）新一代登月火箭“太空发射系统”于当地时间11日以约1.6公里的时速缓慢移动至佛罗里达州肯尼迪航天中心的39B发射台，标志着美国时隔半个多世纪重启载人绕月任务迈出关键一步。

这枚高达98米、重达数百万磅的巨型火箭在升级后的阿波罗时代履带运输车承载下，历经近12小时完成了约6.4公里的转运。此次亮相的火箭将执行“阿尔忒弥斯2号”载人绕月任务，最早可能于明年2月6日发射升空。

在正式发射前，任务团队将对火箭及“猎户座”飞船进行全面检测，并开展加注燃料的“湿式彩排”。NASA局长比尔·纳尔逊在发布会上强调：“在完成彩排前，我们不会确定具体发射日期。”

按计划，四名宇航员将搭乘飞船执行为期10天的绕月飞行任务，最远抵达距月球背面约7700公里的深空，创造人类太空探索新纪录。任务指挥官里德·怀斯曼表示，如今仰望新月时“真切看到了月球背面”，期待亲眼见证地月景观的震撼转换。

此次任务将为2027年后实施的“阿尔忒弥斯3号”载人登月任务奠定基础。纳尔逊展望称：“这仅是漫长征程的起点，希望数十年后的孩子们能见证‘阿尔忒弥斯100号’任务。”他特别指出，重返月球旨在开拓轨道经济和月球经济，激发全球新一代投身航天事业。

值得注意的是，多家商业航天企业已深度参与月球经济生态建设：L3哈里斯公司为“猎户座”飞船制造推进器，初创企业Interlune计划开发月球氦-3资源，蓝色起源公司正在研制2030年投入使用的“蓝月”着陆器。纳尔逊透露已与蓝色起源、太空探索技术公司商讨加速计划，预计未来将频繁见证“新格伦”火箭与“星舰”的发射升空。

美国宇航局巨型太空发射系统火箭今日以约1.6公里的时速缓慢抵达佛罗里达州发射台，这标志着人类五十余年来首次重返月球之旅正式启程。火箭于美东时间上午7时（太平洋时间凌晨4时）启程，历经近12小时完成6.4公里跋涉，抵达肯尼迪航天中心39B发射复合体。由于这枚配备移动发射台的火箭高度超91米、重达数百万磅，此次运输动用了曾服务于阿波罗与航天飞机项目的爬行运输车——该设备经升级改造后，现正助力美国宇航局的阿尔忒弥斯探月计划。

阿尔忒弥斯2号任务最早可能于2月6日发射，但未来数周仍有大量准备工作。完成今日转运后，任务团队将对太空发射系统及其猎户座载人飞船进行全面检测，随后将开展"湿式彩排"——发射团队将为火箭加注燃料并进行倒计时演练至发射前29秒。美国宇航局局长比尔·纳尔逊在新闻发布会上表示："在完成湿式彩排前，我们暂不计划公布具体发射日期。"

按计划，阿尔忒弥斯2号将搭载三名美国宇航员和一名加拿大宇航员开启为期10天的绕月8字飞行。此次任务将使宇航员抵达月球背面约7725公里外深空，突破人类历史最远航行纪录。宇航员克里斯蒂娜·科赫回忆与阿波罗13号宇航员弗雷德·海斯的对话："未等我问候，他便直言'听说你们要打破我们的纪录'"。任务指挥官里德·怀斯曼坦言如今仰望月球已有了全新感受："近日黎明看到弦月悬于晨光时，我仿佛已凝视着月球背面。那些我们反复研习的地标将呈现何等壮景，翻转月轮见证地出奇观——这些思绪如今总在仰望时涌现。"

尽管阿尔忒弥斯2号本身具有历史意义，但其核心任务是为阿尔忒弥斯3号铺路——后者将实现自1972年阿波罗17号以来人类首次登月。该任务官方时间表定于2027年年中之后，但行业专家预计可能推迟。纳尔逊在今日简报中展望更远未来："这是漫长征程的起点，期待数十年后我的孩子们能见证阿尔忒弥斯100号任务。"

上月刚就任美国宇航局局长的这位前Shift4支付处理公司首席执行官强调，美国重返月球旨在"构建轨道与月球经济，开拓科学发现新疆界，激励全球下一代投身这项伟大事业"。西雅图地区多家企业已参与月球经济建设：L3哈里斯公司雷德蒙德工厂正为猎户座飞船制造推进器；总部位于西雅图的Interlune公司计划将氦-3等月球资源运回地球；杰夫·贝索斯创立的蓝色起源公司正在肯特总部研制"蓝月"着陆器，计划2030年起运送阿尔忒弥斯宇航员登月。

蓝色起源的新格伦火箭预计未来数月将运送无人版"蓝月"着陆器前往月球。纳尔逊暗示随着阿尔忒弥斯计划推进，蓝色起源可能在月球经济中扮演更重要角色："我已与蓝色起源和SpaceX商讨加速计划，双方方案都非常出色。若进展顺利，未来数年我们将见证大量新格伦火箭与星舰升空。"

NASA’s massive Space Launch System rocket crept to its Florida launch pad today at a top speed of about 1 mph, marking the first step in a journey that will eventually send astronauts around the moon for the first time in more than 50 years.
The 4-mile trek to Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center began at 7 a.m. ET (4 a.m. PT) and lasted nearly 12 hours. Because the rocket with its mobile launcher stands more than 300 feet tall and weighs millions of pounds, the trip required the use of a crawler-transporter — the same vehicle used for the Apollo and space shuttle programs, now upgraded for NASA’s Artemis moon program.
Liftoff for the Artemis 2 mission could come as early as Feb. 6, but there’s lots to be done in the weeks ahead. After today’s rollout, the mission team will conduct a thorough checkout of the Space Launch System and its Orion crew spacecraft. Then there’ll be a “wet dress rehearsal,” during which the launch team will fuel the rocket and count down to T-minus 29 seconds.
“We have, I think, zero intention of communicating an actual launch date until we get through wet dress,” NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman told reporters.
Artemis 2 is slated to send three NASA astronauts and one Canadian astronaut on a 10-day journey tracing a figure-8 route around the moon. The trip will take them as far as 4,800 miles beyond the lunar far side — farther out than any human has gone before.
One of the crew members, Christina Koch, recalled an exchange she had with Apollo 13’s Fred Haise at a commemorative event. “Before I even said, ‘Hello, sir, great to see you,’ he goes, ‘I heard you’re going to break our record,'” she said.
Mission commander Reid Wiseman said he’s already seeing the moon in a different light.
“One of the most magical things for me in this experience is, when I looked out a few mornings ago, there was a beautiful crescent in the morning sunrise, and I truly just see the far side,” he said. “You just think about all the landmarks we’ve been studying on that far side, and how amazing that will look. And seeing Earthrise, just flipping the moon over and seeing it from the other perspective, is what I think when I look out right now.”
Although Artemis 2 will be historic in its own right, the mission’s main purpose is to prepare the way for Artemis 3, which will put humans on the lunar surface for the first time since Apollo 17 in 1972. That mission is officially set for no earlier than mid-2027, but industry experts expect the schedule to slip.
During today’s news briefing, Isaacman took an even longer view. “This is the start of a very long journey,” he said. “I hope someday my kids are going to be watching, maybe decades into the future, the Artemis 100 mission.”
Isaacman, who served as the billionaire CEO of the Shift4 payment processing company before becoming NASA’s chief last month, said that America’s space effort is sending humans back to the moon “to figure out the orbital and lunar economy, for all of the science and discovery possibilities that are out there, to inspire my kids, your kids, kids all around the world, to want to grow up and contribute to this unbelievable endeavor that we’re on right now.”
Several companies with a presence in the Seattle area are already part of that lunar economy. For example, L3Harris’ facility in Redmond has been building thrusters for NASA’s Orion spacecraft. Seattle-based Interlune is planning to bring helium-3 and other lunar resources back to Earth. And Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space venture, headquartered in Kent, is building a Blue Moon lander that’s meant to put Artemis crews on the lunar surface starting in 2030.
Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket is expected to send an uncrewed cargo version of the Blue Moon lander to the moon sometime in the next few months. Isaacman hinted that Blue Origin could be in for a bigger role in the lunar economy as the Artemis program hits its stride.
“I will say I did meet with both Blue Origin and SpaceX on their acceleration plans. These are both very good plans,” he said. “If we are on track, we should be watching an awful lot of New Glenns and Starships launch in the years ahead.”
