In Early June the SLS rocket will return to Launch Complex 39B for the next wet dress rehearsal. Earlier this year SLS rolled out to the launch pad for the first time for its first wet dress rehearsal. After a few weeks NASA rolled the rocket back to the Vertical Assembly Building to repair some parts that were identified in these tests including leaks and faulty valves. NASA plans to conduct the next dress rehearsal two weeks after the rocket returns to the pad.
