German space capsule lost carrying ashes of 166 people

Description:

Bavarian startup The Exploration Company (TEC) is investigating the loss of its “Nyx Mission Possible” space capsule, which carried the ashes of 166 people and was supposed to return them to Earth after orbiting twice. The capsule re-entered the atmosphere but lost communication just before parachute deployment, and recovery is unlikely. TEC apologized to clients and formed an independent investigation team. The capsule also carried cannabis seeds for a Mars growth study, the DW has reported. The mission marks a historic but tragic first attempt at returning memorial spaceflight ashes. read more: 👍 Like this video to follow the latest on space exploration and its challenges. 💬 Comment below—what are your thoughts on memorial spaceflights after this mission loss? 🔗 Share this video to raise awareness about the risks and hopes of commercial space missions 💰 Support the channel by donating via the YouTube Thanks button—your help keeps these updates coming 👉 Don’t forget to subscribe for more news on space, science, and technology Thanks for watching and supporting the channel.
