Tomorrow NASA will (finally) make the choice of the Orion prime contractor and (I hope) may reveal the full details of (both)  the Lockheed-Martin and Northrop-Grummans/Boeing designs.

However, I hope the winner will not use the current cone-shaped design for the Orion but use a better "bell-shaped" design as I suggest in my latest article [ EggCEV - The "bell-shaped" Orion ] here: http://www.gaetanomarano.it/articles/012eggCEV.html
