NASA and pals complete Artemis II recovery dress rehearsal
NASA has cleared another hurdle toward sending humans back to the Moon with the successful completion of its first Artemis II recovery test mission.saw NASA, the US Navy and US Air Force teaming up to test post-splashdown operations for the end of Artemis II's forthcoming lunar excursion. Unlike recovery tests for Artemis I, which was unmanned, this test included crew operations to ensure thegets out of the Orion capsule and back to the recovery ship without incident.
"URT-10 is the first time that the DoD and NASA have exercised the additional recovery requirements critical to future crewed missions," said Lt. Col. David Mahan, operations director for First Air Force, Detachment 3, which is assigned to provide support for NASA's human space flights. "This event allowed NASA and the Department of Defense to put their years of training into practice to safely recover the capsule and simulated crew. Lessons learned from URT-10 will ensure that recovery for subsequent crewed Artemis flights be safe and effective," Mahan said.
