Orion Oral History Project

The Orion Oral History Project includes interviews with individuals who have contributed significantly to the success of the Orion Program. The oral history sessions reflect experiences and insight on topics such as the early days of the Constellation Program and subsequent cancellation, the development of the Orion Program and spacecraft, and the challenges encountered in working toward the first successful launch of the Exploration Flight Test 1 (EFT-1) on December 5, 2014.

The interviews were conducted by the JSC History Office between July and August, 2016.
