Description
Re-entry, seen from onboard the Apollo 16 Command Module. Plasma licks around the capsule as it hits the Earth's tenuous upper atmosphere at over 25,000 mph. Glimpses of the Pacific ocean are seen as the spacecraft spins and flies its trajectory up and down through the re-entry corridor.
