This photo portrays the latest update of Artemis 1, known as the moon rocket.

And NASA today halted their operation owing to fuel leaks. The NASA blog on 8.50 AM (AST) published the update that they scrubbed the launch of its new moon rocket on a no-crew test flight. 

We are putting it out here exactly the way they wrote on their blog.

"The launch director halted today’s Artemis I launch attempt at approximately 8:34 a.m. EDT. The Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft remain in a safe and stable configuration. Launch controllers were continuing to evaluate why a bleed test to get the RS-25 engines on the bottom of the core stage to the proper temperature range for liftoff was not successful, and ran out of time in the two-hour launch window. Engineers are continuing to gather additional data.
