A media event was held on the grounds near the Press Site at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida where a Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) is on display. The MPCV is based on the Orion design requirements for traveling beyond low Earth orbit and will serve as the exploration vehicle that will carry the crew to space, provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during the space travel, and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities. Seen here is Lori Garver, NASA deputy administrator, Mark Geyer, Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle program manager and Laurence A. Price, Orion deputy program manager with Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company to talk about the vehicle during a question-and-answer session. Photo credit: NASA/Frankie Martin
