SpaceX Dragon Capsule debris, the size of a car hood, crash-landed in NC in May, confirmed by NASA. The debris originated from the non-reusable trunk of the capsule, discarded before its return to Earth. This event underscores the need for improved space debris models and management, as the number of objects launched into space annually has increased dramatically in the last decade.
