SpaceX capsule's loud splashdown

Four astronauts on a private Ax-2 mission returned to Earth in their SpaceX Dragon capsule around 10 p.m. on May 30, splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Panama City, Fla. 

The Dragon, named Freedom, undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) earlier in the day and returned to Earth 12 hours later with a booming-but-flawless splashdown ending the Ax-2 mission by SpaceX for the Houston-based company Axiom Space
