Just an observation but shouldn't the capsule be scorched from re-entering the atmosphere ?🤷 😕 🤔 the capsule has not one mark.

So, as I understand it, the goal of NASA's Orion project is to test its ability to protect astronauts by including systems that will save them (in some fashion) if things on the spacecraft go arey during a mission. Certainly a lofty goal but...ahem...why all the hoopla about it's remnants "splashing down" in the ocean today? Heck...Elon's SpaceX rocket blasted off perfectly today and it's First Stage rocket landed softly on the deck of a ship in the middle of the ocean. NASA ought to just get out of the way and let Elon take over. Take care. God bless!

Orion has been lost in space and NASA doesn’t want the world to know.

Nonsense... Keep good care of earth than exploiting other planets.
