Leadership staff from eight universities and 10 junior colleges in Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky also heard presentations on Office of STEM Engagement opportunities, partnership opportunities, Marshall’s Technology Transfer Office, the NASA software catalog and Marshall’s Advanced Concepts Office. The group toured several Marshall facilities to learn more about center capabilities.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – David Beaman, NASA Space Launch System spacecraft and payload integration manager, addresses the audience assembled in Kennedy Space Center's Operations and Checkout Building high bay for an event marking the arrival of NASA's first space-bound Orion capsule in Florida. Slated for Exploration Flight Test-1, an uncrewed mission planned for 2014, the capsule will travel farther into space than any human spacecraft has gone in more than 40 years. The capsule was shipped to Kennedy from NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans where the crew module pressure vessel was built. The Orion production team will prepare the module for flight at Kennedy by installing heat-shielding thermal protection systems, avionics and other subsystems.
