20. Will we have separate pods for evacuation? (A K2S Question)

The design for the new exploration vehicle has an escape rocket on top of the capsule that can quickly blast the crew away if launch problems develop. There's also little chance of damage from launch vehicle debris, since the capsule sits on top of the rocket. http://www.nasa.gov/audience/foreducators/k-4/features/F_Everybody_Out.html (See CDROM)
