    Apollo 11 Engineer JoAnn Morgan Sends Greeting for Artemis I Moon Mission

    JoAnn Morgan, former Apollo 11 engineer, expresses her excitement for Artemis I as launch day gets closer for NASA’s Space Launch System and Orion spacecraft. Morgan was the only woman working in the control room during launch of Apollo 11 to the Moon in 1969. She notes that more women now are leaders and contributors to NASA’s mission.

    #Artemis I will launch no earlier than Aug. 29, 2022, at 8:33 a.m. EDT (12:33 UTC) from Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39B.
