Today, the first shipment of steel trusses for the mobile launcher 2 arrived by barge at @NASAKennedy. This was the first large steel truss delivery by barge and the 3rd of 43 that will arrive!

We are partnering up with @Bechtel to construct mobile launcher 2. This shipment will be used to construct its base later this summer for future @NASAArtemis missions.
