NASA develops new satellites and rockets on a somewhat regular basis, however if you're referring to MANNED spacecraft then the answer would be the Ares I Rocket. NASA is going back to rockets after the shuttle program because they are cheaper and easier to produce than shuttles. While the Ares project is currently suspended indefinitely, the Orion Space Exploration Vehicle is one of only two prospective manned spacecraft candidates which could qualify as a potential next-in-line to the shuttle at this time. The Space Launch System (SLS) which replaced the planned Ares rocketsis a more likely possibility, however details are very vague in this early stage of development.
