Great Pictures!! But I think the 'UFO' is just a test vehicle for the heat shield.
Boeing Advanced Network and Space Systems material and process engineer Elizabeth Chu inspects the Thermal Protection System Manufacturing Demonstration Unit developed for NASA's Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle project on November 13th, 2007. Boeing Advanced Systems was awarded a contract to develop a prototype heat shield to protect NASA astronauts from extreme heat during re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere upon returning from lunar and low-Earth orbit missions.
