The Orion is the Space Shutte successor for those who don't know. Here's a pic:

I just think its a step backwards. They ditched the Space Plane and now we have to go to space in a capsule on top of a candlestick. Thoughts?

I do. they are doing this purely for cost reasons and have basically abandoned the option of longer term space missions. This type of system will only allow us to go to the space station and back, maybe the moon.

I think they should focus on more costly plans with more an actual space ship. Obvious focus would be on better fuel and propulsion systems.
