A concept image shows the Ares V cargo launch vehicle launching from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Fla. Ares V is being designed as a cargo launch capable of sending large-scale hardware and materials to the Moon, and supplying needed staples to sustain a human presence beyond Earth orbit. The NASA's Project Constellation plans to send human explorers back to the Moon by 2020, and then onward to Mars.
