The Orion crew module pressure vessel for NASA’s Exploration Mission 1 (EM-1) is moved by crane from the base of the bird cage tool inside the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building high bay at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The crew module will be transferred along the high bay to a proof pressure cell for pressure checks. NASA engineers and technicians with Orion manufacturer Lockheed Martin monitor the progress of the move. The Orion spacecraft will launch atop NASA’s Space Launch System rocket on EM-1, an uncrewed test flight
