Orion Vehicle

Hey, did you know that NASA is developing a new spacecraft that will take humans to places in space we've never explored before (like asteroids or MARS!)? But what about the space shuttle—why can't we just take that to other planets? That was a pretty awesome vehicle and the shuttle served us well from 1981–2011, but it was never intended to go beyond low Earth orbit. We need a more powerful new vehicle to take us farther and NASA is on it!

When I entered the correct words for the search, I got no results. Was only able to find it by typing in the hint.

Same issue for the third clue- cannot search by the two-word term and find the code. Must use one word only and rely on the hint.

I'm stuck on the first clue. I've identified the missions. I've tried typing them directly as codes and searching in catalog, with nothing working. Even tried mission 18 since it is mentioned in the hint. I feel like I'm missing something obvious - can anyone point me in the right direction?

Okay, finally got it. Search the catalog for the general one-word name of the program, and when you find a soundtrack by a British ambient music master, that'll give you the two-word code.

are you typing them in separately? it's not as specific as you think it is. some of the missions in this 'series' may have failed, but you're looking for them.. in general. alternatively, you could check the design section of orion's wikipedia.

Thanks to everyone for helping each other out! I made a few edits to the first clue based on everyone's suggestions to make it more straight-forward.

I need help with 4th one I enter the word "E.....Y" as code but its not working. Are we suppose to search in catalog?

Hello! The answer for the second clue is two words, the last word is "module" and the first word starts with a C. Try google searching "orion spacecraft modules" or check the Orion wikipedia page to find the answer.
