The answer is yes and no. John Glenn's first flight ended in a water splashdown at sea, a method NASA plans to use for the future Orion project missions. John Glenn's second flight was aboard the Space Shutle, which landed at Cape Kennedy, where it launched from. Until the Orion project begins flying, US Astronauts fly aboard a Russian Soyuz, which parachutes back to earth on dry land, not the wheels that the Shuttle used.
The term "Project Orion" currently has four generally known references: A study of nuclear pulse-propelled spacecraft, A project to replace the U.S. Space Shuttle fleet, A project to build a laser broom, and An initiative to improve browser support for software development.

The Orion Project was a classified U.S. military program in the 1950s and 1960s exploring the possibility of nuclear pulse propulsion for spacecraft. It proposed using nuclear explosions to propel a large spacecraft to other planets. The project was ultimately canceled due to concerns about the environmental impact of nuclear testing in space.
Orion is a constellation made up in the minds of the ancients to represent "Orion" a hunter in mythology. The Orion Nebula is a diffuse nebula located south or Orion's belt. It is an area of extensive star formation. It is only called Orion Nebula as it is seen within the constellation of Orion. See related questions

No, Orion is not an elliptical galaxy. Orion is actually a constellation in the night sky, known for its prominent stars like Betelgeuse and Rigel. Elliptical galaxies are large, rounded, and featureless galaxies that are different from individual stars or constellations.
The stars in Orion include Betelgeuse, Rigel, Bellatrix, Mintaka, Alnilam, Alnitak, Saiph, and Meissa. These stars form the distinctive shape of the constellation Orion, which is easily recognizable in the night sky.
Dr. Stephen Greer and Dr. Ted Loder of the Orion project have it.
