U.S. Navy MH-60 Seahawk Flies Overhead During Orion Recovery
A U.S. Navy MH-60 Seahawk helicopter from Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 23 flies overhead as small boats approach NASA’s Orion spacecraft in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California following splashdown on Friday, April 10, 2026.
NASA’s Landing and Recovery team, working alongside U.S. Navy personnel, coordinated recovery operations to bring Artemis II crewmembers—NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen—safely aboard USS John P. Murtha.
