The new Langley Headquarters Building is one of the greenest buildings at any NASA Center. It uses 60 percent less energy and 40 percent less water than a typical office building. A large portion of the building's energy comes from renewable resources. Green Building, The Hamptons, Buildings, Geek, Mansions, House Styles, World, Water

NASA engineers and contractors have successfully completed the Orion Launch Abort System (LAS) tower, marking a milestone that puts NASA one step closer to sending Orion 3,600 miles into space on the uncrewed Exploration Flight Test-1 (EFT-1) mission, scheduled to launch in September 2014. Orion is America’s next generation spacecraft that will carry astronauts to destinations beyond low Earth orbit.

The Orion Launch Abort System, or LAS, pathfinder returned home to NASA Langley in October 2010 for a short stay as it makes its way to NASA's Kennedy Space Center. The hardware was built at Langley and was used in preparation for the highly successful launch abort system flight test, called Pad Abort, at the U.S. Army's White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.
