The three Apollo 11 crewmen await pickup by a helicopter from the U.S.S. Hornet, prime recovery ship for the Apollo 11 lunar landing mission. The fourth man in the life raft is a U.S. Navy underwater demolition team swimmer. All four men are wearing biological isolation garments. Apollo 11 splashed down at 11:40 a.m., July 24, 1969, about 812 nautical miles southwest of Hawaii.
