U.S. Navy's Heroic Recovery of NASA's Orion Space Capsule | EFT-1 Mission
Witness an extraordinary feat of teamwork and technology as U.S. Navy divers from USS Anchorage (LPD 23) execute the remarkable recovery of NASA's Orion space capsule. On December 5, 2014, history was etched in the Pacific Ocean as the capsule gracefully touched down, marking the triumphant conclusion of Exploration Flight Test 1 (EFT-1), the pioneering orbital test flight of the Orion spacecraft.
Embark on this riveting journey as we relive the moment when human ingenuity and collaboration intersected with the cosmos. The unmanned craft, launched atop a Delta IV Heavy rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, embarked on a four-hour, two-orbit test that showcased its resilience and potential for deep space exploration. The mission's high-energy reentry at 20,000 miles per hour underscored the groundbreaking nature of this endeavor.
Join us in paying homage to the exceptional units and individuals whose dedication made this recovery operation possible. Expeditionary Strike Group Three, USNS Salvor (T-ARS 52), Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron Eight, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group One, Fleet Combat Camera Pacific, and Fleet Weather Center San Diego came together in a synchronized symphony of expertise and courage.
Relish the moment of triumph through the lens of PO1 Paul Seeber, PO1 Gary Keen, and the U.S. Navy Video, released on December 9, 2014. This video stands as a testament to humanity's pursuit of exploration and the extraordinary achievements that result from collaborative endeavors.
