iss073e0343806 (July 15, 2025) --- The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft carrying the Axiom Mission 4 crew is pictured from the International Space Station separating from its trunk and reentering Earth's atmosphere above the Pacific Ocean near the coast of California at approximately 12:20 a.m. local time. The streak is the plasma trail caused by the intense friction between Dragon's heat shield and the atmospheric gases as the spacecraft penetrates the atmosphere.
