Today's podcast will focus on the development of American AIR - SEA Search, Rescue and Recovery Vehicles.
Since America decided there landing site would be somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, America turned to the US Navy. The Navy used aircraft carriers, helicopters, other ships and vehicles for search and recovery.
Aircraft carrier-based helicopters played a major role in the extraction of the astronauts from the sea. With the help of Navy divers, the helicopters were able to lift the astronauts from their spacecraft to the helicopter and carry them back to the aircraft carrier.
A second helicopter plucked the spacecraft from the sea and carried it to the carrier.
