In the Multi-Payload Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, fire and rescue personnel, as well as a closeout crew, participate in an exercise known as crew egress evaluation from an Orion mock-up. The spacecraft is replicated in all areas that could affect a crew's escape, including the area that seals to a launch pad's White Room. The exercise focuses on whether astronauts and their rescue crews can exit the vehicle quickly in the event of a pad emergency.
