Once again, too early for me to watch the launch of ORION.
All went well. Two orbits completed and has splashed down in an upright stable position.
I have been watching the NASA Live TV from Spaceref link

The Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) is a spacecraft intended to carry a crew of up to 4[2] astronauts to destinations beyond-low Earth orbit (LEO). Currently under development by NASA[8] for launch on the Space Launch System,[9] Orion will facilitate human exploration of the Moon, asteroids and Mars.
The MPCV was announced by NASA on May 24, 2011.[10] Its design is based on the Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle from the cancelled Constellation program.[11] The Orion command module is being built by Lockheed Martin. The Orion Service Module, provided by the European Space Agency,[12][13] is being built by Airbus Defence and Space.
The MPCV's debut uncrewed test flight, known as Exploration Flight Test 1 (EFT-1), is scheduled to be launched aboard a Delta IV Heavy rocket on December 4, 2014.[3][4][14] The first crewed mission is expected to take place after 2020.[15]...

ORION Quick FactsOrion is America’s next generation spacecraft that will take astronauts
to exciting destinations never explored by humans. It will serve as the
exploration vehicle that will carry the crew to distant planetary bodies,
provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during space
travel, and provide safe reentry from deep space.
