About this work
At the U.S. Naval Base San Diego in California, 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 on March 6, 2014. U.S. Navy personnel monitor conditions as the ship leaves port. 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.
