At the mobile launcher park site area north of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, progress on the construction of a new mobile launcher, or ML, to support the Constellation Program is apparent. When completed, the launcher's tower will be approximately 345 feet tall and have multiple platforms for personnel access. The launcher will provide a base to launch the Ares I rocket, designed to transport the Orion crew exploration vehicle, its crew and cargo to low Earth orbit. Its base is being made lighter than space shuttle mobile launcher platforms so the crawler-transporter can pick up the heavier load of the tower and taller rocket.
