About this work
A test version of the Orion crew module is guided into the well deck of the USS San Diego during Underway Recovery Test 5 in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. Tether lines have been attached to the crew module by U. S. Navy divers and other personnel in a rigid hull inflatable boat. NASA's Ground Systems Development and Operations Program and the U.S. Navy are practicing recovery techniques to prepare for recovery of Orion on its return from deep space missions.
