Inside SpaceX Dragon Capsule

Inside SpaceX Dragon Capsule.
SpaceX's Dragon capsule is a class of partially reusable cargo spacecraft.
The Dragon spacecraft is capable of carrying up to 7 passengers to and from Earth orbit, and beyond. It is the only spacecraft currently flying that is capable of returning significant amounts of cargo to Earth and is the first private spacecraft to take humans to the space station.
The Dragon spacecraft is outfitted with two drogue parachutes to help stabilize the spacecraft after reentry and four main parachutes to help slow the spacecraft down before landing.
The Dragon spacecraft is made up of three parts one is a nose cone cap, second, a conventional blunt-cone ballistic capsule, and third, an unpressurized cargo-carrier trunk with two solar arrays.
The Dragon capsule is reusable and capable of performing multiple missions. The trunk cannot be recovered; it separates from the capsule prior to re-entry and burns up in the Earth's atmosphere.

"inside the spaceX dragon capsule" *only shows the outside*

[@EvilNeuro]

It’s more to say “this is how the dragon works”

Watch the two Netflix series about SpaceX to see more inside stuff

Technically that wasn't "inside" the capsule at all

[@chez7988]

It doesn’t have two solar arrays, that was dragon V1, there is one static solar panel as part of the trunk

Its also capable of a propolsive landing, but nasa didnt aprove them for that.

[@santiagodaniel968]

no, it's not capable, it was thought but that, but the idea was canceled due to being cheaper and safer to just test and develop parachutes, it was SpaceX decision to cancel it, not from nasa. anyways it will be required to make some important changes to be able to propulsive landing with current dragon version

[@nicolasnegron5193]

@@santiagodaniel968 there is a speech where elon said that dragon was capable, and that nase didnt like it because it was unsafe for crew astronauts, cause its their astronauts

[@santiagodaniel968]

@@nicolasnegron5193 let's see, u need legs that extends through the heatshield for landing, u need to make the software that controls the descent, and more things that probably are needed. So no, its not capable without any design changes and I don't use to take seriously some of Elon speeches

[@nicolasnegron5193]

@@santiagodaniel968 i see what your saying but if all spacex did was cut the parachutes, and still land in the ocean with the remaining fuel from the L.E.S, you wouldnt need legs. And barely, a descent software. I hope this didnt turn into an argument, cause that wasnt what i was trying to do.

@@nicolasnegron5193 why u would even use the Les engines for landing if u have parachutes on the first place and there's no reason for this to convert into an argument 🙂

[@GadreelAdvocat]

With some minor changes. Might be able to make the trunk reuseable.

How ?? Whats your thoughts 🤔 Im interested. Im still trying to find something on how do thet access the trunk condescending the heat sheild is above the unpressurised trunk. Do they accessit on a space walk while at the ISS 🤷

CCP: Thank you for sharing the information

[@lengould9262]

Lol

[@nissamsali8695]

I had a big doubt during the re-entry to the earth you all are telling that there is high temperature and hot then finally how those parachutes survived ?without burning?

[@ghost307]

The parachutes don't deploy until the capsule is closer to the ground and things have cooled down quite a bit.

[@valmine7507]

parachutes are protected during descent silly

[@rampagingfido]

Dragon only seats 4 and after reading the other comments I'm curious if they got anything right other than the name.

[@CardZed]

It can seat 7, but for ISS flights only 4 are used.

[@rampagingfido]

@@CardZed SpaceX designed a 7 seat version first but NASA had them change the seat orientation due to g-forces at splashdown. The redesign changed Crew Dragon to the 4 seat version that they have today.

The narrator states the dragon capsule can go beyond earth orbit. It can't. It's not designed for that. Sloppy research.

This sounds like they read outdated info about Red Dragon, but I can't be sure.

[@PZYSpotter]

@@WasatchWind yup

[@lyttenacol1791]

So why don't we get the space junk and send it through the earth's atmosphere to burn it up??

[@CardZed]

Most space junk naturally decays, and upper stages usually vent excess fuel to slow down and deorbit. The main space junk problem comes from old satellites that cant be controlled anymore.

Space shuttle was more advanced

[@WasatchWind]

It depends on what you're looking at. Shuttle could carry more crew and far more payload. It also was capable of landing on a runaway. However, the shuttle was also far more expensive than flying on Falcon, and from the two missions that ended in tragedy, had clear problems with safety. Dragon in contrast is likely the safest human spacecraft ever designed. I think that most people attribute shuttle to being more "advanced" because it is a spaceplane. Theoretically if one can pull off this concept well it can be fantastic, but it introduces a lot more complexity, and hence, risk. That being said, there is the Dreamchaser spaceplane that could be added to the roster of US crewed vehicles in the coming decade. It's like a smaller looking, more modern shuttle essentially. However, the type of shuttle people dream of from sci fi, the single stage to orbit vehicle, in which you take off from a runaway, fly to space, and then land back on a runaway, is far beyond our current technology. It may exist someday, but it won't be developed unless there's a robust human spaceflight industry - one that requires vehicles like Dragon.

[@Swanlord05]

@@WasatchWind ....if they built the crew compartment to just blast apart from the ship...problem solved

[@WasatchWind]

@@Swanlord05 I don't think you understand how abort systems work. Yes, they considered ejection seats on the shuttle. It would still be extremely dangerous. Perhaps though it would've been better than nothing. The shuttle for the first portion of its flight had no abort system at all, while Dragon and Starliner can both abort at any point from the launch pad to orbit.
