European Service Module for Artemis III Undergoes Acoustic Testing at Kennedy Space Center (xataka.com)

• ESM-3 acoustic test used over 200 speakers at 140+ dB at Kennedy Space Center.
• Airbus Space installed four solar arrays; module provides power, propulsion, life support for Orion.
• Artemis III re-planned as low-Earth orbit demo, docking with SpaceX/Blue Origin landers.

"The third European Service Module (ESM-3) for Orion, built by Airbus Space for ESA, has completed acoustic tests at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Over 200 speakers generated more than 140 decibels to simulate launch conditions. The module, crucial for power, propulsion, and life support, is destined for Artemis III, now re-planned as a low-Earth orbit demonstration mission instead of a lunar landing. The test verifies structural integrity before flight."
