About this work

SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The Orion boilerplate test vehicle has been moved from its cradle onto a set of rubber shock absorbers in the well deck of the U.S. Navy's USS Anchorage as part of Underway Recovery Test 2 in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego. A test of the tether lines attached to Orion is underway. NASA, Lockheed Martin and the U.S. Navy are conducting the test to prepare for recovery of the Orion crew module on its return from a deep space mission.
