PACIFIC OCEAN (Nov. 3, 2021) Sailors assigned to amphibious transport dock USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) move to chock and chain an MH-60S Seahawk helicopter attached to the “Wild Cards” of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 23 during flight quarters in support of NASA Underway Recovery Test Nine (URT-9), Nov. 3. This marks the ninth U.S. Navy underway recovery test in support of the NASA Artemis mission and the third time a URT has taken place aboard John P. Murtha. The U.S. Navy has many unique capabilities that make it an ideal partner for supporting 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.
