SpaceX CRS-11: Dragon capture, 5 June 2017

The SpaceX Dragon CRS-11 cargo spacecraft was captured with the International Space Station’s robotic Canadarm2 on 5 June 2017. The Dragon spacecraft being used to support the Commercial Resupply Services mission (CRS-11) mission previously resupplied the International Space Station on SpaceX’s CRS-4 mission in September 2014.

Red Sea crossed in 29 seconds. Your turn Moses.

I love how everything looks so slow and methodical. Its hard to believe that the ISS and the Dragon Spacecraft are both travelling roughly around 27, 000 kilometres per hour

Gives a fresh new meaning to "chasing the dragon"

[Ryan]

Welcome back the space station dragon.

[garyjac]

Brilliant people ....Wow that is something to watch....

orbital equations are more difficult to add up. i tried but errors add up. the speed is only available at apogee and parigee.

Allen, Don't know if you've seen this or not. Muy inestante! R.

[RonJohn]

I think I saw this exact same video on the NASA channel.

what is 1/2mv^2 ? 1pst force x distance -- m dv/dt r shift the dv with the dr. v dv integrate to get the 1/2 the V gets a square ^2 -- 1/2mv^2 128 pst.

[halamkajohn]

-- it seems there is a multitude of ways to increment. Then use cos when thrust forces are stopped

And in Life movie he just grabs it like a ball.

It's obvious that Earth is flat. At 20'17'' you can clearly discern flying pigs and chess-playing elephants.

[ThatGuy-nvwo]

You people got it all wrong, spaceships are flat

[halamkajohn]

10.6 meters = 34 feet/second. from conservation of momentum, r1 X v1 = r2 x v2 from conservation of energy 1/2 mv1^2 = 1/2mv2^2 + mgh (armly) apogee and perigee . find h, m cancels. 1/2/g (v1-v2)=h; 1/64[ (25, 000, 034)^2- (25, 000, 000)]=

Silly NASA, should have just used the Dragonrend shout and you wouldn't have to deal with this mechanical arm nonsense.
