The Exploration Ground Systems (EGS) Recovery Team checks out the test version of the Orion capsule before releasing it into the open water of the Pacific Ocean during Underway Recovery Test-7 (URT-7) on Nov. 1, 2018, on the USS John P. Murtha. There are two large, orange mockup uprighting bags in this view, but when Orion actually splashes down there will be five. The test is one in a series of tests to verify and validate procedures and hardware that will be used to recover the Orion spacecraft after it splashes down in the Pacific Ocean following deep space exploration missions. Orion will have emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during space travel and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities.
