What it’s like to re-enter Earth’s atmosphere
from The Current
Tonight, the Artemis II crew comes back to Earth at a maximum speed of 38,405 kilometres per hour. Only a very few people know what that feels like — and Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques is one of them. We talk to him about his experience of going to the International Space Station and how he feels today as his astronaut friends make their way back home.
