Exploration Flight Test-1 (EFT-1) is the first step in NASA’s bold new mission to design and build the capability to extend human existence to deep space.
NASA is committed to human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit and the continued development of its next generation spacecraft –Orion. Orion is the first spacecraft in history capable of taking humans to multiple destinations within deep space. It will allow the exploration throughout the solar system from the moon, to an asteroid, to Mars. No other spacecraft in the world has this capability. And it’s being built, right now.
