A mock-up of the Orion crew exploration vehicle floats in the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean in 2009. NASA engineers are testing this 18,000-pound mock-up, which was built by engineers at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, to learn what the crews will experience after Orion lands and the recovery teams begin their work. Three weeks prior, the mock-up was on display on the National Mall in Washington as it made its way from West Bethesda, Md., to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. (Image Credit: NASA)
