USS Donner (LSD-20) as Ham's capsule comes in to land on the ship. Close up of the landing from the photo. ENOS capsule by the side of the USS STORMES. I think it's in a test to see how well the capsule floated after reentry.the capsule was higher and faster coming back into the atmosphere then the sub-orbital missions, and as it only in the sea for a short time before being lifted out by helicopter to the ship. note; the die-bag is still working and this will help to see if the capsule has a leak in it. Ham in his lower part of his life pod chair from the capsule.
