This will include corrosion control and the replacement of some of the steering cylinders and shoes on the vehicle\u2019s tracks as it is readied for the next move sometime in June of 2023.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, emergency egress and escape provisions will be added to the mobile launcher in preparation to support human spaceflight for the Artemis 2 mission. CT-2 will be used to roll the mobile launcher to and from the pad in order to test the newly-integrated life-saving system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sam Dove, who has spent the last 25 years as a crawler engineer and driver of the world\u2019s heaviest self-propelled vehicle, also attended the momentous occasion. He said teams will be \u201cfixing plates\u201d that hold up the crawler, repainting most everything as well as lubricating and replacing any worn parts from all the recent moves for Artemis 1. This will even include a general tune-up ahead of the next roll.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All the technicians that work on the crawler stand in front of CT-2 for a photo with the certificate.
