Testing Orion's Lauch Escape System
At ATK in Utah (Promontory)...getting ready:
The LES, the one device missing on the shuttle because of its design; the device, I believe, that's going to make any future winged manned spacecraft very very hard to conceive and build.
The big advantage is that the LES can be jettisoned before LEO, which enables more weight to be carried to space.
