Mark Geyer, NASA’s Orion manager, visited NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, on April 9, 2008, to see the Pad Abort-1 test article, developed to demonstrate the Orion capsule’s emergency escape system during launch. Dave McAllister, NASA Armstrong Abort Flight Test operations lead, right, shows Geyer the Orion capsule mockup. Pad Abort-1 was later tested at the U.S. Army’s White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, on May 6, 2010.
NASA Armstrong Prepares Orion for Pad Abort-1 Safety Test
Teamwork was on full display at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, on Aug. 13, 2009, as engineers and technicians prepared the Pad Abort-1 vehicle – the Orion launch abort system development test article. After assembly and integration, the mock crew capsule was transported to the U.S. Army’s White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico where it successfully completed its test on May 6, 2010.

The abort motor for NASA’s Artemis 1 mission, secured in a heavy transport truck, arrives at the Launch Abort System Facility (LASF) at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 6, 2019. The abort motor, manufactured by Northrop Grumman, will be offloaded and moved into the LASF where it will be integrated with Orion subcomponents and prepared for Artemis 1. The abort motor is one of three motors located on the tower of the Launch Abort System (LAS). The LAS is designed to pull the Orion capsule and its crew away to safety if an emergency occurs during ascent of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket. During Artemis 1, the uncrewed Orion spacecraft will launch atop the SLS from Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy. Orion will embark on an approximately three-week mission that will take the spacecraft thousands of miles past the Moon. Orion will return to Earth and splashdown in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California, where it will be retrieved and returned to Kennedy.
