Cargo Dragon will return to Earth on July 9th – video

Space cargo ship Cargo Dragon under the supervision of NASA astronaut Shane Kimbrough, at about 18:45 Kiev time, disconnected from the ISS. He began his journey to Earth and must land on the shores of Florida.

About it informs NASA.

Over the next hours, Elon Musk’s SpaceX Dragon ship will have to move a safe distance from the ISS. Already on Friday, July 9, the ship will return to the atmosphere of our planet.

The landing of the spacecraft should take place on the coast of Florida. Specialists will have to transport the scientific data stored on board the capsule as soon as possible and send it to the Kennedy Space Center station.

NASA explained that the hasty seizure of data is necessary to avoid damage due to microgravity.

Note that the spacecraft docked to the ISS on June 5. He delivered food and equipment to the station for conducting scientific experiments with a total weight of 3.3 tons.

As reported by “Apostrophe”, the auction house Christieʼs decided to put up for auction a bottle of “space” French wine that visited the ISS… According to experts, its taste has changed.
