Wikipedia
Ares I-X was the first test flight in the Ares I program, a launch system for human spaceflight currently under development by the United States space agency NASA. Ares I vehicles are intended to launch Orion crew exploration vehicles. The vehicle used for the Ares I-X suborbital test flight was similar in shape, weight, and size to the planned configuration of later Ares I vehicles, but will have largely dissimilar internal hardware. Along with the Ares V launch system and the Altair lunar lander, Ares I and Orion are part of NASA's Constellation Program, which is developing spacecraft for U.S. human spaceflight after the Space Shuttle fleet is retired from service in 2010.

Not a dupe, T-30 as opposed to T-10. A lot goes on in those 20 seconds.
