While the damage means some expensive repairs are required before a second flight, the pad “will be ready to support Artemis II and we had accounted for that previously in our pre-plan and our budget for the time between Artemis I and II,” Sarafin assured reporters.
NASA has since been more forthcoming with details of the damage. “We also did have some damage to pneumatic lines associated with gaseous nitrogen and gaseous helium, and that in turn caused the oxygen sensors on the pad to show that there were low oxygen readings until we got the leaks in the pneumatic lines isolated,” said Sarafin.
