Space Launch System (SLS) managers are now planning for the utilization of two Mobile Launchers (MLs), allowing for additional use of the rocket on both crewed and cargo-only missions. The first major cargo-only flight is being focused on the Europa Clipper mission now set to ride on a Block 1 SLS, a variant which may now fly four times – instead of just once – before the more-powerful Block 1B variant is ready and launched off the new ML-2 in the middle of the 2020s.
