[SLS] Test Version of Orion Spacecraft Completes Journey to Kennedy Space Center
A test version of NASA's Orion spacecraft completed a cross-country journey at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Feb. 8, after giving residents in three states the chance to see a full scale mockup of the craft that will take humans into deep space. The capsule will be stored in Kennedy's Multi-Payload Processing Facility.
The test vehicle was used by ground crews in advance of the launch abort system flight test that took place in New Mexico in 2010.
