About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Flotation devices are attached to the top of the mockup Orion crew exploration vehicle before the testing in the open water at the Trident Basin at Port Canaveral, Fla. The mockup vehicle will undergo testing in open water. The goal of the operation, dubbed the Post-landing Orion Recovery Test, or PORT, is to determine what kind of motion astronauts can expect after landing, as well as outside conditions for recovery teams.
