The SpaceX #CrewDragon spacecraft parachutes successfully deploy during the latest development test. This test simulated a pad abort, where the vehicle is tumbling at low altitude before parachute deploy, validating SpaceX’s parachute models and margins. As a part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, SpaceX has been developing and testing the Crew Dragon parachute system, which is comprised of two drogue parachutes and four main ring-sail parachutes—the same type of parachutes that have been commonly and successfully used for human spaceflight in the past.

    I know thar plans for powered landing superDraco engines was abandoned. But can they still be use if parachute fail ? and Crew Dragon can safe land using his rocket engines ?

    you should put in the title that is a 3d simulation, we have realized from the beginning that this is 3D, maybe because we work on post production effects 😉

    Are these the tests that are causing NASA greater concern than an aborted launch?

    Imagine an animal that uses a similar system to parachutes to move. Something that lives in a gas planet with a thick atmosphere

    Just need to solve the small problem of it blowing up on the launchpad.
