    USS John P. Murtha and Navy Divers Recover the Orion Space Craft

    The NASA Orion space craft is winched into the well deck of the amphibious transport dock ship USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) after returning from the Artemis II lunar mission on April 10, 2026. John P. Murtha is underway in the U.S. 3rd Fleet area of operations supporting NASA’s Artemis II mission, retrieving the crew and space craft following their return to Earth and splashdown in the Pacific Ocean. NASA’s Artemis II mission sent four astronauts on a flight around the moon in the Orion space craft, marking the first time humans journeyed to deep space in over 50 years.
