Likely debris from a SpaceX capsule found in Australia
CNN
Chunks of space debris were reportedly found on farmland in the Australia mountains, and on Wednesday NASA confirmed that at least one of the objects is "likely" a scrap of hardware from a SpaceX Dragon capsule that was intentionally jettisoned as the spacecraft reentered the Earth's atmosphere last May.
SpaceX did not return a request for comment, and typically does not interact with news media.
Local media reports said at least three pieces of debris have been recovered in the mountain range near Australia's southernmost tip, and according to NASA's statement, SpaceX confirmed it is likely to be a part of the Dragon's trunk. The trunk provides electricity and other necessary services to the main capsule during its time in orbit but is discarded as the main capsule slices back through the thick upper atmosphere on its way home.
