The reference for this page is an article about the original nuclear-powered Orion spacecraft, but the page is intended to be about the newer Project Orion, the successor to the Space Shuttle. Also, why in the world does the article claim that the launch vehicle is a Saturn 5? This rocket was phased out in the 1970s, and the Ares 5 is NASA's planned heavy-lift launch vehicle. I find this article very fishy, to say the least.

Obviously there was some confusion about Project Orion and Project Constellation, which is also why it mentions the Saturn V. I reworded the section to make that more obvious. There's still more information needed on the actual Orion (Project Constellation) mars mission. Grissom (talk) 15:20, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
