CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Preparations are underway at the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida for the move of the Orion spacecraft for Exploration Flight Test-1 out of the high bay doors. Inside the high bay, Kennedy Center Director Bob Cabana, Deputy Center Director Janet Petro, and Burton Summerfield, NASA senior advisor for Institutional Management, talk with workers. The spacecraft will be transported to the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility where it will be fueled ahead of its December flight test. Orion is the exploration spacecraft designed to carry astronauts to destinations not yet explored by humans, including an asteroid and Mars. It will have emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during space travel and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities. The first unpiloted test flight of the Orion is scheduled to launch atop a United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida to an altitude of 3,600 miles above the Earth's surface. The two-orbit, four-hour flight test will help engineers evaluate the systems critical to crew safety including the heat shield, parachute system and launch abort system.
