About it

The descent module of a Soyuz spacecraft, captured on display and drawn with splats. A Soyuz has three parts, and only this one comes back: the other two are let go before re-entry. Its shell takes the heat of the fall through the air, which is why it is scorched, and it lands under a parachute.

Tap it and a ripple runs over the capsule as it hops on its cradle. Drag to circle it and look at the round hatch, the burned and pitted skin, and the frame it rests on.
