NASA's Orion capsule is on its way to a Cape Canaveral launch pad.
The exploration spacecraft targeting an unmanned first test flight on Dec. 4 departed a Kennedy Space Center processing facility to start a 22-mile journey to Launch Complex 37 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
The seven-story, 50,000-pound stack including test versions of Orion's crew and service modules and a launch abort system is expected to take about six hours to roll past KSC's Vehicle Assembly Building and launch pad 39B before heading south to its seaside pad.
