Orion frame work<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Set to be shipped to the USA around the New Year, ESA\u2019s contribution to NASA\u2019s Orion spacecraft is taking shape at Airbus in Bremen, Germany. This is no test article: the service module pictured here will fly into space by 2020, past the Moon and farther than any other human-rated spacecraft has ever flown before.<\/span><\/p>\n

The service module will supply electricity, water, oxygen and nitrogen, propulsion and temperature control.<\/span><\/p>\n

The blue circular frame is the support structure that holds the module as technicians work to get it ready. Yellow ties keep the 11 km of wiring in place as the thousands of components are installed and connected \u2013 the ties will be removed before flight. Behind the red support covers are the eight 490 N R-4D-11 thrusters, built by Aerojet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Technicians are working in three shifts a day to assemble the components that are being shipped from all over Europe to complete this service module in just a few months\u2019 time. In December it will be taken by road to Bremen airport and flown to NASA\u2019s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to meet its crew capsule.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
