The design of National Aeronautics and Space Administration Orion’s prelaunch navigation system is introduced, both for the first flight test, Exploration Flight Test 1, and for the first planned Orion mission, Exploration Mission 1. A detailed tradeoff of possible design decisions is discussed, and the choices made by Orion are presented. The actual performance of the navigation system during Exploration Flight Test 1 is presented together with the navigation flight-software data provided by Orion to the ground controllers in telemetry.
