TLDR; SLS will get cancelled because they fucked up the mobile launch tower.

OR, they'll just throw more money at it.

It was already gonna be a long wait after the demo launch, but now, they have to completely rebuild this piece of shit.
A thing that was built in the 60s, so I imagine the tooling for it is pretty much gone.

SLS was supposed to save cost, by re-purposing existing hardware.
At the point we're at, they could have just designed a totally new heavy lift booster for the same cost.

Could someone kindly dump some nasasspaceflight L2 images? How has this not happened already?

We all know Chris is too lazy to ever bother upgrading the site to prevent people from sharing stuff, that and screenshots happen. Why not share this stuff?

Official NASA renders, it has finished the CDR - this is what it will look like.
