On Monday, June 3 and Saturday, June 8, NASA launch teams, in coordination with U.S. Air Force and industry teams, held the first two of three dress rehearsals for the Ascent Abort-2 (AA-2) flight test at Hangar AE at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. AA-2 will demonstrate the Launch Abort System (LAS) can quickly get astronauts safely away from the rocket in the event of a problem during launch.

During the daylong rehearsals, launch team managers simulated several countdowns, including a number of challenges for different team members to overcome. In one simulation, there was a lightning strike four miles from the pad. In another scenario, the launch director had to leave his station due to an illness, forcing his backup to immediately step in and take over the lead role.

The LAS is located at the very top of the rocket and has three motors working together to pull Orion away from the Space Launch System — NASA's next generation rocket. Once activated, the LAS can steer the spacecraft and carry astronauts to a safe distance if an emergency arises during Orion's climb to orbit.

Orion is designed to transport astronauts safely on deep space missions as NASA works to land the first woman and next man on the Moon by 2024.

Роскосмос пока не рассматривает американский корабль "Орион" для полетов космонавтов РФ

Источник рассказал ТАСС, что такие полеты не рассматриваются с технической точки зрения, поскольку "Орионы" не предназначены для низких орбит

ЛЕ-БУРЖЕ /Франция/, 18 июня. /ТАСС/. Американский пилотируемый корабль "Орион" пока не рассматривается для полетов на нем российских космонавтов. Об этом сообщил во вторник ТАСС заместитель гендиректора госкорпорации по международному сотрудничеству Сергей Савельев на Международном аэрокосмическом салоне "Ле-Бурже - 2019".

"Возможность организации так называемых перекрестных полетов (российских космонавтов на новых американских кораблях, а астронавтов NASA - на российских "Союзах") активно обсуждается в настоящее время, в первую очередь с международно-правовой точки зрения. NASA готовит проект соответствующего документа, который затем будем прорабатывать. Весь этот диалог ведется по поводу космических кораблей компаний Boeing и Space X, корабль "Орион" пока не рассматривается [для полетов российских космонавтов]", - сказал Савельев.

По его словам, остается открытым вопрос об условиях осуществления таких полетов, а также о количестве успешных полетов с американскими астронавтами на борту, позволяющих считать надежность новых кораблей достаточной для полета российских космонавтов.

Источник в ракетно-космической отрасли пояснил ТАСС, что полеты российских космонавтов на американских "Орионах" не рассматриваются с технической точки зрения, поскольку эти корабли не предназначены для полетов на низкие орбиты, где находится Международная космическая станция (средняя высота ее орбиты - 420 км над Землей).

Корабль "Орион" будет выводить на орбиту разрабатываемая в США ракета-носитель Space Launch System (SLS). Планируется, что первый полет без экипажа корабль совершит в 2020 году: облетит Луну и вернется на Землю. Пилотируемый полет может состояться в 2022 году.

НАСА планирует использовать "Орион" в рамках освоения Луны. Управление рассчитывает, что в середине 2030-х с помощью "Ориона" астронавты совершат экспедицию на Марс.

LOS ANGELES AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. --
Summer of 2019 heralds "Summer of Launch" for the Space and Missile Systems Center, the nation's launch vehicle procurer of choice. SMC leads the Department of Defense launch community as the organization celebrates its momentous milestones over a 31-day period.
...
On July 2, NASA will launch its Ascent Abort-2 mission, the third of five launches required for certification of the Orion spacecraft. This flight test is critical in demonstrating Orion's launch abort system to ensure crew safety during ascent for deep-space missions, a prelude to manned trips to lunar and other destinations, including Mars. SMC/LE's Rocket Systems Launch Program is providing the launch vehicle, a refurbished first stage motor from an SR118 Peacekeeper intercontinental ballistic missile. The repurposed ICBM motor provides NASA with suitable reliability for the abort test at a cost savings, compared to alternatives.
...
The future of launch awaits!

Launching this rocket 2 weeks from today. Today was the mission dress rehearsal, an 0300 call to stations made for a short night and long day. But we were fully successful in practicing nearly every aspect of the launch except hitting the 'Go' button.

Launch Abort Motor Arrives for Orion's Artemis 1 Mission



The launch abort motor, one of three motors that are key elements of Orion's launch abort system, arrived on June 6, 2019, at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida and was delivered to the Launch Abort System Facility (LASF). The abort motor will be integrated with Orion subcomponents and prepared for NASA's Artemis 1 mission.  

The abort motor was manufactured by Northrop Grumman. The other motors that are part of the LAS are the attitude control motor and the jettison motor. All three motors are located on the launch abort tower. 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 fr om 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, wh ere it will be retrieved and returned to Kennedy.

NASA Television will broadcast launch and prelaunch activities for the Ascent Abort-2 flight test of the launch abort system for NASA's Orion spacecraft's, which will help pave the way for Artemis missions with astronauts to the Moon and then Mars.

The test's four-hour launch window opens at 7 a.m. EDT Tuesday, July 2. A test version of the crew module will launch from Space Launch Complex 46 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. NASA TV coverage will begin at 6:40 a.m.

NASA also will host a test preview news conference at 11:30 a.m. Monday, July 1, at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Participants include:
    [/li]
  • Mark Kirasich, Orion program manager
  • Jenny Devolites, Ascent Abort-2 test conductor
  • Randy Bresnik, NASA astronaut
The launch and preview news conference will air on NASA TV and the agency'sn website. A postlaunch news conference is not planned.

Ascent Abort-2 will verify Orion's abort system can pull the crew module away from an emergency during its ascent to space. During approximately three minutes of flight, a booster will loft the test capsule about six miles into the atmosphere to experience high-stress aerodynamic conditions, at which point the abort sequence will be triggered to carry the crew module a safe distance from the rocket. The test flight will help ensure the safety of astronauts in the unlikely event an emergency arises as they rocket into space.

Orion is part of NASA's backbone for deep space exploration, along with the Space Launch Systemand Gateway, which will land the first woman and next man on the Moon by 2024. Through the Artemis program, the next American Moon walkers will depart Earth aboard Orion and begin a new era of exploration.

  • Engines manufactured by Aerojet Rocketdyne will support the first crewed mission of the Orion spacecraft

  • Eight auxiliary engines that control Orion's orbital maneuvering will be integrated into the service module

  • Aerojet Rocketdyne is contracted to supply Orion's auxiliary engines through Artemis 2
REDMOND, Wash., June 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aerojet Rocketdyne has delivered eight auxiliary engines for integration into the European Service Module (ESM) of NASA's Orion spacecraft. During Artemis 2, Orion's first mission to carry astronauts, the engines will maintain the spacecraft's in-space trajectory and position, as well as serve as backup to the main engine.

Orion will be capable of taking crews to deep space destinations and returning them safely to Earth. Launched on NASA's new Space Launch System (SLS) heavy-lift rocket, Orion is designed to carry people farther into space for longer periods of time than ever before, withstanding higher levels of radiation and re-entry speeds than any previous human-rated spacecraft.

"Based on the flight-proven R-4D engine, our auxiliary engines will provide critical maneuverability and propulsive support to Orion throughout its mission," said Aerojet Rocketdyne CEO and President Eileen Drake.

The eight 110-pound-thrust bipropellant engines will be coupled into four pairs on the bottom of the ESM. The ESM, which remains connected to the spacecraft throughout the mission until just prior to Orion's re-entry to Earth's atmosphere, provides propulsion, power, temperature control, air and water for crew members.

The auxiliary engines for Orion are manufactured, tested and qualified at Aerojet Rocketdyne's Redmond, Washington facility under a contract to Lockheed Martin, NASA's prime contractor for Orion. Aerojet Rocketdyne also provides the service module main engine components, Launch Abort System jettison motor, crew module reaction control system and composite overwrapped pressure vessels for the Orion spacecraft.
