I remember watching the 1960's splashdowns. Nasa is still doing it the same way. I am amazed at the comparison to the way Elon does it. An hour after splashdown and they haven't even opened the capsule yet, and they are still bobbing up and down in the ocean. Elon would have already had them on the way home.
Their satellite phones wouldn't work, so they couldn't contact the Navy people. The capsule had to be entirely shut down before the Navy could access it.

This is EXACTLY what I was thinking! It really is an embarrassment.
