Was ballast sled built and used - What mass, distance
Article says ballast sled added to design by SpaceX (with ref to Feb 2015 congressional testimony) - but did it ever get built and flown ? When was it cancelled ? Why ? What mass, travel, direction etc would it have had ? - Rod57 (talk) 15:38, 5 February 2022 (UTC)


 * The ballast sled was not implemented (along with the landing legs). It would have been used for precision land landings without using the parachutes. SpaceX removed the ability to land propulsively because of the development and testing time. Crew Dragon only lands by water splashdown. No showbiz mike (talk) 13:50, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Here is a NASA document that includes a Crew-2 capsule subassembly listing that doesn't mention a ballast sled system. https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/atoms/files/nac_ccp_status_dec_6_2018_non-sbutagged.pdf No showbiz mike (talk) 14:09, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
