Boeing to Cut Workers from SLS Rocket Program Amid Schedule Uncertainty

Boeing is set to cut its Space Launch System (SLS) workforce due to external factors, including slipping timelines for NASA's Artemis lunar missions. The company's decision to review and adjust staffing levels comes as NASA faces delays and budget challenges for its Artemis program, with potential impacts on the SLS rocket's development. The cuts are expected to affect hundreds of employees across Boeing's rocket facilities in Alabama, Louisiana, and Florida, primarily impacting the core stage and Exploration Upper Stage programs.
