Orion stacking at the RAL
The Orion launch abort system and crew module test articles undergo stacking at Lockheed Martin’s facilities near Denver in preparation for acoustic testing on Aug. 9, 2011. To emulate the sound pressure levels experienced at launch, the tests exposed Orion and its launch abort system to acoustic levels exceeding 150 decibels, while hundreds of instruments record the vehicle’s response.
