Summary

Description
English: Engineers successfully tested the parachutes for NASA's Orion spacecraft at the U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona Wednesday, March 8. This was the second test in a series of eight that will certify Orion's parachutes for human spaceflight. The test, which dropped an Orion engineering model from a C-17 aircraft at 25,000 feet, simulated the descent astronauts might experience if they have to abort a mission after liftoff.
Español: Segunda prueba de una serie de ocho para la certificación de los paracaídas de Orión para vuelos espaciales tripulados. La prueba, en la que se arrojó un modelo de Orión desde un avión C-17 a una altitud de 25.000 pies, simuló el descenso que los astronautas podrían experimentar al abortar una misión después del despegue. Esta prueba se llevó a cabo en Yuma Proving Ground en Arizona, Estados Unidos, el miércoles 8 de marzo de 2017.
Polski: W dniu 8 marca 2017 roku na należacym do US Army poligonie Yuma Proving Ground w stanie Arizona inżynierowie z powodzeniem przetestowali spadochrony dla statku kosmicznego Orion. Był to drugi z serii ośmiu testów, na podstawie których spadochrony mają być zatwierdzone do lotów załogowych. Test polegał na zrzuceniu modelu testowego statku Orion z samolotu C-17 z wysokości 25.000 stóp (około 7600 m), co miało symulować spadanie, którego mogą doświadczyć astronauci, jeśli musieliby przerwać misję tuż po starcie.
Čeština: Úspěšný test padáků pro přistání kosmické lodi Orion agentury NASA provedený v arizonské poušti dne 8. března 2017. Při tomto 2. testu (z celkových osmi) byl modul vynesen letadlem C-17 do výšky asi 8 km a poté byl jeho pád bržděn testovanými padáky pro simulaci neúspěšného startu lodi s lidskou posádkou a její návrat na zem.
Magyar: A mérnökök sikeresen tesztelték a NASA Orion űrhajójának ejtőernyőit 2017. március 8-án, szerdán (U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground , Arizona, Amerikai Egyesült Államok). Ez volt a nyolcból a második teszt a személyzettel megvalósított űrrepülés előtt. A teszt során az Orion mérnöki modelljét egy C-17-es repülőgépből 25000 láb (7600 méter) magasságból dobták le azt az esetet szimulálva, amikor az űrhajósoknak a felszállás után meg kell szakítaniuk a missziót
