What is today's NASA’s Orion Spacecraft ascent abort test all about? We're verifying the Orion capsule’s launch abort system, a tower on top of the crew module, can steer the capsule and astronauts inside it to safety in the event of an issue after liftoff. The test is quick, fast and high, lasting less than three minutes with the test crew module reaching an average speed of Mach 1.5, roughly 1020 miles per hour, at approximately 32,000 feet in altitude.

This Week at NASA: Another test of the Orion spacecraft’s parachute system came to a successful conclusion. The test evaluated the parachutes’ performance in an emergency abort situation that would require Orion to be jettisoned from the agency’s Space Launch System rocket during a launch.

NASA carrying out a parachute jettison test for the Orion spacecraft over Arizona. During the test, a mock Orion capsule is dropped from an aircraft, the forward bay cover is released, and the parachutes deploy mid-air—just like they would during a real return to Earth. Why it matters 👇 Orion is the spacecraft that will carry astronauts on Artemis missions to the Moon and beyond. Its parachute system is critical for a safe splashdown, and tests like this help engineers confirm everything works
