Like it's sister spacecraft, Voyager 2 also was designed to study the edge of our solar system beyond the planets. Uranus Accomplishments: Following its flybys of Jupiter and Saturn, Voyager 2 was to become the first spacecraft to visit Uranus. Voyager 2 is the only spacecraft to have flown by Uranus.

Orion is NASAâs new spacecraft, built to take humans farther into space than theyâve ever gone before. It will carry the crew to space, provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew and provide a safe return to Earth.Having completed its first successful flight test in December 2014, Orion's next milestone will be a flight beyond the orbit of the moon.s it punches into Earth orbit, Orion separates from its protective fairing (above), then jettisons its Launch Abort System. On future missions the Launch Abort System can pull Orion and its crew out of danger if there is a problem with the rocket during ascent.
