2014年12月23日 · The Orion emergency escape system is of the old Apollo pull rocket and shroud system. The CST-100 has a more modern pusher RS-88 rocket system for emergency escape. The CST-100 is designed to be reusable while the Orion is a one use space craft.

Developed by Boeing under NASA 's Commercial Crew Program (CCP), it consists of a reusable crew capsule and an expendable service module. Slightly larger than the Apollo command module or SpaceX Crew Dragon, but smaller than the Orion capsule, the Starliner can accommodate a crew of up to seven, though NASA plans to fly no more than four.

2024年5月19日 · Orion features advanced life support systems, radiation protection, and a robust launch abort system, making it suitable for missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Starliner vs. Orion. The Starliner, developed by Boeing, shares some similarities with Crew Dragon in its mission profile, primarily focusing on LEO missions and ISS transport.

Orion (Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle or Orion MPCV) is a partially reusable crewed spacecraft used in NASA's Artemis program. The spacecraft consists of a Crew Module (CM) space capsule designed by Lockheed Martin that is paired with a European Service Module (ESM) manufactured by Airbus Defence and Space .

2018年7月23日 · Orion is being made primarily by Lockheed Martin for deep space travel (moon/mars etc.) for NASA missions. Starliner is being built by Boeing in parallel to the Dragon 2 under the commercial crew contract. Commercial crew’s primary purpose is to allow Americans to launch in our own vehicles on American ground to low earth orbit

2021年5月1日 · Boeing and Lockheed are in a shotgun marriage called ULA, they are otherwise competitors. Orion development started much earlier than Starliner, during the Constellation program with requirements to make it possible to go to an Asteroid or to the moon.

2024年10月2日 · Orion Spacecraft vs. Starliner: How Do They Compare? When you’re comparing Orion to Boeing’s Starliner, you’re lookin’ at two pretty different spacecraft with unique missions. Orion’s built to tackle deep space, built to withstand harsh environments way past low Earth orbit.

2024年4月26日 · For those seeking a quick answer, the Boeing Starliner is a partially reusable spacecraft that can transport astronauts. It is primarily designed for missions to the ISS, unlike the Orion...

2024年5月8日 · Both Starliner and Crew Dragon’s development costs were sub-$5B, which compares favorably to historical crew-rated spacecraft costs and to Orion, the only other operational crewed spacecraft in the US. Orion—which is larger than Dragon and Starliner and is deep space rated—had a development cost of $23B. Per Seat Cost

2018年7月27日 · SpaceX and Boeing intend to re-use their capsules, but the value found in the service module is expended with each flight. This observation applies equally to the Orion capsule. Attempts to put more value into the capsule for possible re-use have been led by Orion, which comes perilously close to the maximum weight that can be landed on Earth ...
