Is it possible to use thrusters to slowdown for a re-entry?

Best to use a giant brake pad, aka heat shield

.@SpaceX’s #CrewDragon returned to Earth with a splash in the Atlantic Ocean off Florida’s eastern shore at 8:45am ET, completing an end-to-end flight test to the @Space_Station and back as part of our @Commercial_Crew Program. Learn more: nasa.gov/commercialcrew

Dragon 2 was designed to land using thrusters, with parachutes as backup. Switched to chutes as primary, due to difficulty of proving safety, but Dragon can still do it.

They set a hell of a bar. Still impressed by the NK-33, well and that whole family that was born from that engine. Impressive stuff!

The Crew Dragon’s been on quite a ride since I last saw it—congrats to @NASA and @SpaceX on a successful return! We invested in the @Commercial_Crew program to strengthen the U.S. space program for the long haul, and it’s great to see that happening.

Atmospheric entry at 17,000 mph is like a meteor & will vaporize steel. Burn marks below are on cold side. Main heatshield on bottom.

Getting rid of peak power splitting across two bays & updated software with battery warmup results in >2X improvement in fleet charge time

We will spend 3 or 6 months with public beta of V3 in North America, make sure there are no corner case issues & then begin buildout worldwide.

Latest software improves Tesla Supercharger times by up to 25% for all Tesla S/X/3 worldwide, incl original 2012 Model S. Not splitting power across 2 Supercharger stalls helps all cars up to 50%.

Hi @elonmusk @tesla all tesla of the market will be compatible with the battery conditioning? or will there be exceptions? 🤔
Elon Musk
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 7. März 2019
Those improvements are independent of Supercharger V3 power increase from 135kW to 250+kW. All factors considered, charge time will drop by factor of 4 best case & more than 2 for whole Tesla fleet. Effectively, this more than doubles total WW Supercharger system throughput.
