SpaceX's 1st all-civilian crew set to splashdown Saturday night

SpaceX's 1st all-civilian crew set to splashdown Saturday night.

After three days in space, the first all-civilian flight to Earth's orbit is set to splashdown tonight.

The Dragon capsule is expected to return to Earth just after 7 p.m. ET Saturday evening.

It will be traveling at 17,500 miles per hour when it deorbits; will slow down to around 350 mph when the parachute deploys at 18,000 feet; will and stay at around 119 mph before it hits the ocean.

SpaceX's preferred splashdown location is in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Cape Canaveral, but they are prepared to pivot to the Gulf of Mexico, if needed.
