On July 24, the astronauts returned home and were immediately put in quarantine. The splashdown point was 13°19′N 169°9′W / 13.317, -169.15, 2,660 km (1,440 nm) east of Wake Island, or 380 km (210 nm) south of Johnston Atoll, and 24 km (15 mi) from the recovery ship, USS Hornet. After recovery by helicopter approximately one hour after splashdown,[1] the astronauts were placed in a trailer that had been designed as a quarantine facility.
