The American company
SpaceX today successfully landed NASA astronauts after a rocket malfunction.
Let us know that this malfunction in space was done deliberately by NASA. The company was part of a test, 'abort-tested' through Falcon 9 at Florida's John F.
Kennedy Space Center in the US, proving that the Crew Dragon could land
astronauts safely on the ground. Let's know about the feature and capability of
Crew Dragon as well as SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket.
Talking about this
test done at the John F. Kennedy Space Center in Florida in the US, its engine
was shut down as soon as the rocket reached a height of 10 miles after its
launch. The Crew Dragon was detached from the rocket after 84 seconds of
flight. After splitting from Falcon 9, the Crew Dragon distanced itself for
about 10 seconds and then landed safely in the Atlantic Ocean near Florida with
the help of four parachutes. This made it clear that if astronauts got stuck in
a rocket malfunction, the Crew Dragon could take them out safely.
Speaking of SpaceX's
Falcon 9 rocket, has been designed with a re-use design. But in a recent
test, this rocket was completely destroyed because only then can the ability of
the Crew Dragon be detected. Now NASA and SpaceX will collect its debris and
research rocket accidents. Four parachutes were deployed to slow down the Crew
Dragon during the test and two human-size dummies were mounted on the seats
with motion sensors. Though this test was to be done in 2019, it was delayed
due to a long investigation.
