SpaceX Dragon's Splashdown and Sonic Boom Terrify Florida Residents

Florida residents reported a loud boom as the SpaceX Dragon capsule made its way down to Earth, splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico. The private aircraft, carrying two Saudi astronauts and two additional passengers, was dropped by parachute into the Gulf of Mexico 12 hours after docking at the orbiting lab. The Axiom Space Ax-2 crew included retired Nasa astronaut Peggy Whitson, Tennessee businessman John Shoffner, stem cell researcher Rayyanah Barnawi, and fighter pilot Ali al-Qarner.
