The SpaceX Crew Dragon Resilience is pictured from the International Space Station reentering Earth's atmosphere. Resilience, with its protective heat shield, reached the atmosphere at over 17,000 miles per hour experiencing friction and extreme heat creating a visible plasma trail streaming behind it. Astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker and Soichi Noguchi would safely parachute to a splashdown inside Resilience a few minutes later in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Panama City, Florida
