SpaceX’s crew -10 astronauts will go home to Earth today (August 7), and you can see action live.
The crew Dragon Capsule, the crew of the crew -10 quartet, is prescribed to ignore the International Space Station (ISS) at 12:05 pm tonight and is dropped after 24 hours.
You can see it live through NASA. Space.com will also take the feed, if the agency provides it.
The NASA stream will begin with EDT (1345 GMT) at 9:45 pm to cover the closing of the hatch between Dheeraj and ISS, which is expected to be at 10:20 AM EDT (1420 GMT).
The coverage will resume at EDT (1545 GMT) at 11:45 pm, which will be 20 minutes before ignores. This will be followed by a long break, in which the webcast will be again raised on Friday (August 8).
Splashdown is expected to be in the Pacific Ocean from the coast of California at 11:58 am on Friday. NASA will also organize a post -landing press conference on EDT (1730 GMT) at 1:30 pm on Friday, if all go to the plan.
However, none of it is set in stone; If the splashdown zone has a bad weather crop, the date of departure can be pushed back.
Crew -10 launched a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on 14 March and reached the ISS two days later. The mission includes NASA’s Anne McClen and Nicole Aires, Jacksa (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) and Kiril Peskov of Russia’s Space Agency, Russia, Russia. McClane is the commander of Crew -10, Aires is a pilot and Onchis and Peskov are mission experts.
His replacement is four astronauts of SpaceX’s crew -11 mission, who arrived at the laboratory orbiting on Saturday morning (2 August).
Crew -10 has already ticking an important box on The Journey Home to Earth -Earth -Farewell Celebration, which four astronauts and other seven people currently live on the ISS held on Tuesday afternoon (5 August).
“Crew -10 has received a complete privilege to work here for the last four months, and we have a lot of gratitude to all ground teams, which have been shown every day to make it possible,” McClane said during the ceremony.
“We are really very humble to represent humanity, and we hope that we can be a reminder to others of humanity and when we work together we can actually complete,” he said.
