Repost from @nasa__sls using @RepostRegramApp - The Orion Spacecraft requires 3 major structural components - all prefabricated and friction welded together. They’re made from an aluminum alloy with some steel components, that when fully manufactured will be one of the strongest crew capsules ever made, and one of the safest. So far 3 have been made at the NASA rocket factory, while 2 more are in order at the moment. They’re capable of being reused and refurbished 10 times .
