About this work

A dart-shaped device, functioning as a Boeing CST-100 Starliner weight simulant, drops from a C-17 aircraft during parachute system testing at the U.S. Army’s Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona on June 26, 2019. This “high Q” test involved intentionally inflating the parachutes at higher pressures than expected during missions, to validate the system is safe to carry astronauts to and from the International Space Station.
