Artemis I The Orion Spacecraft

NASA’s Orion spacecraft is built to take humans farther than they’ve ever gone before. Orion will serve as the exploration vehicle that will carry the crew to space, provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during the space travel, and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities. Orion will launch atop NASA’s rocket, the Space Launch System.

On the first integrated mission, Artemis I, an uncrewed Orion will venture thousands of miles beyond the Moon over the course of about six weeks. The mission will pave the way for flights with astronauts beginning with Artemis II.

Learn about the spacecraft, the research aboard Orion and how it’s supporting our return to the Moon and beyond in our September Thought Leader Series “Artemis I: The Orion Spacecraft,” presented by the University of Texas Medical Branch.

One switch or gauge for one function or reading versus having multiplex signal to coneections harness to one touch screen display....with three backup replacement in storage. I see there is problem with weight and space.

Secret NASA Artemis 1 missions was announced unscrewed mission but in reality Artemis 1 mission was manned mission that launched in December of last year and uncrewed mission was actually 8 yrs ago when testing used older design under previous program that was canceled by US President Obama!
