Artist's rendering of transearch injection and recovery

Transearch Injection and Recovery: The Service [Module] propulsion engine fires to thrust the spacecraft Earthward. The Service Module is jettisoned and the Command Module hits the atmosphere at about 24,500 miles per hour. Three 83-1/2-foot- diameter parachutes lower it to the Pacific Ocean where Department of Defense recovery forces retrieve the crew and spacecraft. (Source: KSC)
