NASA oops

I saw that last month NASA was testing the new Orion module. This test involved the landing back on Earth after a successful mission. Unfortunately the parachutes failed and the module hit the ground rather hard.

I am all for space exploration and travel and I know that this will be resolved. But I must admit it made ms smile that they could not get parachutes to work after doing this back in the 60s and 70s and Russia doing this with their craft

I really hope though that the return to the Moon will ignite interest in one of man’s greatest achievements.
