This is the final hardware needed for the Ares 1-X's upcoming test flight this summer. It is manufactured by the Ares 1-X first stage prime contractor Alliant Techsystems Inc, or ATK. The train departed Utah March 13 on the seven-day, cross-country trip to Florida. Accompanying the train upon arrival were managers from ATK and NASA.
