Orion launches into a new era for NASA spaceflight
The Delta IV Heavy rocket lifts the Orion capsule from Cape Canaveral in dawn light for a four hour two orbit unmanned test. Officials call it a bull's-eye splashdown in the Pacific and say the flight proves core systems for future deep space missions. NASA aims for astronauts to reach the Moon, asteroids, Mars, and beyond in coming decades.
