Just curious….why not just do this at splash down? Just drain the water and let the crew out…

I can only imagine how it might feel to finally have a little decompression time when they first get a bit of privacy. Going back to (somewhat) normal routines with a feeling “damn that really happened”. I could not be able to shake the thought it might’ve been a dream.

Amazing that there was no steam from the water when it touched down. Pod must have been so hot it burned off the steam before you could even see it. Science

Just imagine a Predator coming out of it.

I want to touch it.
amazing how that is all thats left of the 5.75 million pound rocket that lifted off a week and a half ago
why are the pulling the ropes ? dont we have machines for that ? 😭what
Every museum is going to be fighting for that capsule.
Aww, someone brought balloons…
Happy birthday!
Nice they get to celebrate with red balloons
This this is the Artemis I Orion capsule. [For Artemis II the capsule was brought into the ship at night.](https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasahqphoto/55200563115/)
Isnt that from a test before?
“right after” is bending the truth quite a bit here. I gave up watching an hour after splash down and this was not in that hour…
Don’t they have to be in quarantine for awhile after getting back?
Right after splashdown is a reach.
Misinformation, This is Artermis 1

This is not from “right after splashdown and Navy divers starting recovery”. It’s like 2 hours later. Just FYI
No, this is Artemis I. Downvoted.
I fought that thing in Ocarina of Time inside Lord Jabu Jabu.
That’s 2.5 hours after splash down . I watched it last night.
What’s all the coppery things on the outside, I assume it’s not just to make it look cuter.
This isn’t Artemis II and would have been hours after when they retrieved the empty capsule even if it was
Bet they were glad to GTFO of that thing
Why does this look so different from when Katy Perry came back from space?
Title misleading but ok
I can only imagine it smells like one giant fart in there.
Welcome covid 26 sleeping inside

As a Canadian I keep seeing maple leaves in the balloons lol
Did some sailor risk being thrown in the brig just for this dumb video?
Wow, that thing looks like it came from outer space
Funny how similar it looks to the Apollo design
If I enter from space do I need my passport? Rules are rules.
Navy divers what?
Nice thinking using a ship with a well deck. I was wondering why they chose the USS Whatsitsname as the recovery ship.
Is it covered in microchips?
Crispy
I always assumed a crane grabbed a hook on the top and they just pulled it up. Assumed it was simple, not rocket science.
