David Saint-Jacques returns after 204 days in space

Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques is getting used to being back in Earth's gravity after returning from a six-month stay aboard the International Space Station, breaking Robert Thrisk's Canadian record set in 2009. Thirsk explains what happens to the body as it readjusts to life on Earth.

1000 meter wide parachute 😆
.
Reminds me of how we used to talk in our childhood.😄

[WARStPierre]

Leave it to a CBC reporter to confuse a 1000m^2 parachute with a 1000m wide parachute. How could he possibly think the parachute was a kilometre in diameter??? If the parachute was flat the diameter would be 35.7m but because it takes more of a spherical shape at the top, the diameter is by necessity less than 35.7 m across. How do you confuse that with a kilometre!!!??

I wonder how it feels to have “space withdrawals”😂😂

[BeyondAverageSkilled]
