About this work
SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The USS San Diego heads out to sea with the Orion boilerplate test vehicle and other hardware in its well deck for an underway recovery test. U.S. Navy personnel assist as a crane is attached to a rigid hull inflatable boat. About 100 miles offshore, NASA and the U.S. Navy conducted tests to prepare for recovery of the Orion crew module, forward bay cover and parachutes on its return from a deep space mission.
