Summarized to fit within text limit here: SpaceX has confirmed the re-entry of Dragon spacecraft trunk hardware to NASA following its service missions to the ISS. In 2023, trunk debris that supported NASA's SpaceX Crew-5 re-entered over Colorado, and recently, debris from private astronaut mission, Ax-3 was found in Saskatchewan, following the deorbit of s trunk on Feb. 26, 2024, Most recently, the trunks that supported Crew7 missions re-entered over Saudi Arabia and North Carolina respectively. NASA is unaware of any structural damage or injuries resulting from these findings. Previously, in 2022, trunk debris from Crew-1 was discovered in Australia There is another trunk currently i orbit attached to the Crew-5 Dragon on the ISS. Crew-5 is expected to return later this summer. During its initial design, the Dragon trunk was evaluated for re-entry breakup and was predicted to burn up fully.The information from the debris recovery provides an opportunity for teams to improve debris modeling. NASA and SpaceX will continue exploring additional solutions as we learn from the discovered debris. In the unlikely event of locating a piece of space debris, please do not attempt to handle or retrieve the debris.Instead, please contact the SpaceX Debris Hotline at 1-866-623-0234 or at recovery@spacex.com. NASA and SpaceX remain committed to safeguarding the public, astronauts, and ground crews.
