Nasa has started moving its Artemis II rocket from its assembly point to the launch area four miles away - ahead of the first crewed mission to the Moon in decades.
The short, four-mile journey through part of Nasa's Kennedy Space Center is expected to take up to 12 hours, moving at less than one mile an hour.
The mission - which could blast off as soon as 6 February - is expected to take 10 days.
While it will take astronauts around the moon rather than touching down, it aims to set the stage for an eventual human landing on the lunar surface for the first time since the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 70s.
