1 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,540 bjbj< This is Jay Estes, I am a deputy for flight test integration in the Orion program. 2 00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:15,980 What you see here is a Delta 4 heavy booster being launched from the pad. This is a flight 3 00:00:15,980 --> 00:00:23,480 test that Orion is going to conduct in 2014. It is a Delta 4 heavy unmanned booster with 4 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:29,920 two strap-on boosters on the side. Once we get through first stage, the strap-on boosters 5 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:36,480 separate themselves and the central core continues on as a second stage. Once we get to low Earth 6 00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:41,790 orbit, the second stage shuts down and separates itself from the spacecraft and the upper stage. 7 00:00:41,790 --> 00:00:48,800 At that point the upper stage lights, and takes us on to orbit, the service module panels 8 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:55,540 separate, and the launch abort system with its shroud, which has been covering the capsule, 9 00:00:55,540 --> 00:01:05,040 comes off. In low Earth orbit, which is about 250 miles above the Earth, we make one orbit, 10 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:12,530 and this orbit lets us check out our systems. After one orbit, we ignite the upper stage 11 00:01:12,530 --> 00:01:20,580 and we lift the orbit to about 3,600 miles. Now 3,600 miles is approximately 10 times 12 00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:26,870 higher than any man-rated spaceship has been since 1972 when we came back from the moon. 13 00:01:26,870 --> 00:01:31,760 And the reason we are doing this is to test our heat shield on reentry. The heat shield 14 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:36,910 will be exposed to heating much like you would get from the moon, and we will be able to 15 00:01:36,910 --> 00:01:42,390 demonstrate that our heat shield is sufficient for recovering people from missions beyond 16 00:01:42,390 --> 00:01:51,240 Earth. And as we begin to enter, the capsule then separates from the service module section. 17 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:56,480 The service module section stays attached to the upper stage, and here you see the control 18 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:03,990 jets that are firing. The control jets the altitude for entry. As we enter, we experience 19 00:02:03,990 --> 00:02:12,360 maximum heating lower in the atmosphere. This is the primary test of Exploration Flight 20 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,870 Test 1, is that heat shield. As we get low in the atmosphere, the forward bay cover come 21 00:02:17,870 --> 00:02:28,700 off, which covers the parachutes, and two small chutes come out to slow us down. After 22 00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:35,090 we slow down those separate, three small pilot chutes come out to open the main parachutes, 23 00:02:35,090 --> 00:02:40,900 which initially open at about three percent opening. Then they go to ten percent open. 24 00:02:40,900 --> 00:02:46,950 Then they go to full open. We use those on staging the keep the forces on the chutes 25 00:02:46,950 --> 00:02:53,510 lower. It makes for a softer ride and it keeps our chutes safe. We enter the water at a slight 26 00:02:53,510 --> 00:02:59,990 angle, to help the crew with the impact of the water. The parachutes fall in the water, 27 00:02:59,990 --> 00:03:04,989 we hope to recover those. We are cooperating with the Navy, and using one of their well 28 00:03:04,989 --> 00:03:13,150 deck ships to recover our capsule. This Orion after this spaceflight will be refurbished 29 00:03:13,150 --> 00:03:15,803 and used again on an ascent abort test in the future.
