SAN DIEGO (July 28, 2023) Sailors assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 23 “Wildcards” wait for a recovery basket from a MH-60S Seahawk during an at-sea recovery training in the San Diego bay alongside NASA for the Artemis program. In preparation for NASA's Artemis II crewed mission, which will send four astronauts in Orion beyond the Moon, NASA and the U.S. Navy will conduct a series of tests to demonstrate and evaluate the processes, procedures, and hardware used in recovery operations for crewed lunar missions. The U.S. Navy has many unique capabilities that make it an ideal partner to support NASA, including its amphibious capabilities with the ability to embark helicopters, launch and recover small boats, three-dimensional air search radar and advanced medical facilities.
