Orion: The Journey Begins

Description

Even as the space shuttle program has come to a close, NASA has been building and testing its next human spacecraft, the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (aka MPCV), around the country. Orion is being designed and tested to go further than we've ever gone and do things the shuttle could never do, namely explore deep space. In "Orion: The Journey Begins" take a look at the progress and development of NASA's newest vehicle, which will be the most advanced human spacecraft ever built.

We can do amazing things!
