  • Boeing is preparing for the cancellation of the Space Launch System rocket.

The article from NextBigFuture discusses Boeing's preparations for the potential cancellation of NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) program in March 2025. It highlights that Boeing, a key contractor for the SLS, is anticipating the end of the program due to budget constraints and shifting priorities towards newer, potentially more cost-effective launch systems like SpaceX's Starship. The article mentions that NASA's Artemis missions, which rely on the SLS, might face delays or changes in strategy. Boeing is reportedly looking into alternative projects and partnerships, including possible collaborations with other space companies to adapt its workforce and resources. The piece also touches on the broader implications for the aerospace industry, suggesting that the cancellation could lead to a reevaluation of how space missions are funded and executed, with a possible shift towards commercial spaceflight providers.
