Today, June 16, a SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule is scheduled to start its journey back to Earth. After completing its tasks, the capsule is now returning to Earth and the event can be watched live.
The Dragon capsule is an essential part of the SpaceX program, providing the International Space Station with essential goods and materials. The capsule is also capable of bringing back valuable research results and experiments from the space station to Earth.
Return to Earth
The return to Earth is a complex process that is carefully planned and executed. The capsule must first leave its orbit and then enter the Earth's atmosphere, where it becomes heat-resistant due to friction.
After landing, the capsule will be recovered by a recovery team and the valuable research results and experiments will be unloaded and further analyzed.
