CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – In the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, media get a close look at various segments for the Ares I-X rocket being assembled in High Bay 4. In front at left is the yellow crane known as the "birdcage" that is used to lift the crew module-launch abort system. Ares I-X is the test vehicle for the Ares I, which is part of the Constellation Program to return men to the moon and beyond. Ares I-X is targeted for launch in August 2009.
