Re-entry & splashdown are crucial: Space experts
The New Indian Express Mangaluru
|July 15, 2025
AS every science enthusiast and Indian celebrated the undocking of Dragon spacecraft Grace from the ISS on Monday evening, experts and scientists from ISRO said the re-entry and a safe splashdown would be crucial.
"In space, the spacecraft is orbiting at speeds of 28,000 km/hour and is in zero-gravity, but when it has to start to descend, this speed will have to be reduced to 24 km/hour in less than an hour. This will be done gradually by firing thrusters in the opposite direction, which will act as brakes to reduce the speed. At this time, the spacecraft will be at an altitude of 70-80 km. The angle at which the spacecraft enters the atmosphere is vital," explained an ISRO scientist.
