Tenth Parachute Test for NASA's Orion Adds 10,000 Feet of Success
A
complicated, high-altitude test Wednesday demonstrated NASA's new Orion
spacecraft could land safely even if one of its parachutes failed.
A test version of the Orion capsule touches down in the Arizona desert following a parachute test on Wednesday, July 24.
A
test version of the Orion capsule is righted following its touchdown
after a parachute test. Although the parachute system is tested in the
desert, Orion will land in the Pacific Ocean.
