Whilst you are visiting the NASA video site, be sure to also have a look at the
first splash test for the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV)
that was conducted on July 12th.

NASA has constructed a swimming pool and giant tower for the tests which they
refer to as the "Hydro Impact Basin". So for those who would like to see a swimming
pool and dive tower installed at their workplace, there is a tip for you. When filling out the
requisition order with accounts, be sure to refer to it as a "Hydro Impact Basin". That way
it will get through without raising too many eyebrows
