Here's the Orion space capsule (This is the test capsule) being drop tested in the Hydro Impact Basin. This was an actual test to collect data if the space capsule came were to come down with only 2 of the 3 chutes deployed.
The capsules always came in at an angle into the water to reduce the G load on the astronauts. I heard an engineer say its only about 2-3 Gs coming down like this.
This test is at the "Gantry" where the Apollo capsules were also tested among other aircraft and vehicles...
BTW the open house was freaking awesome on the geek scale!
Here's the video of the drop test....enjoy!
