SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft accomplished its deorbit burn at 5:18 p.m. EDT.
NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov are lower than an hour away from a splashdown off the coast of Florida.
4 minutes earlier than splashdown, the drogue parachutes will deploy at about 18,000 ft in altitude whereas Dragon is transferring roughly 350 miles per hour. Lower than a minute later, the principle parachutes will deploy at about 6,000 ft in altitude whereas the spacecraft is transferring roughly 119 miles per hour.
