190807-N-DY073-0106 CORONADO, Calif. (August 7, 2019) Sailors from Amphibious Construction Battalion One aboard an Improved Navy Lighterage System Craft connect a tag line to NASA’s forward bay cover in order to lift it out of the water, as a part of the Orion Space Shuttle recovery training exercise. This was an experimental exercise for the future launch of the Orion Space Shuttle with training focused on the recovery of the forward bay cover, which is the top of the capsule that detaches after reentering the atmosphere allowing the parachute to deploy for the capsule and the crew inside.
