Dragon Capsule Re-entry: NASA, SpaceX Prepare For High-Risk Splashdown After Fiery Descent

Dragon Capsule Re-entry is set for a critical descent as SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft prepares to return to Earth.

The journey will last 46 minutes, during which the capsule will separate from its trunk module and enter Earth’s atmosphere at 28,000 km/h.

This high-speed entry creates immense friction, turning the capsule into a ball of fire.

A heat shield will protect the crew while mission control loses contact for 7 minutes.

NASA and SpaceX are closely monitoring conditions to ensure a safe splashdown in the ocean.
