ITUNA, Sask. — Two men with SpaceX descended on a Saskatchewan farm in a moving truck Tuesday to retrieve cosmic junk that fell earlier this year from one of its spacecrafts.
The workers, who didn't give their names while at the farm near Ituna, lugged the large scorched pieces of carbon fibre and aluminum into the back of the U-Haul before leaving.
The retrieval comes months after farmer Barry Sawchuk found the debris and said he was contacted by SpaceX for its return. "I guess the one thing is it's a little community that is on the map. Let's hope it doesn't happen again and somebody doesn't get hurt."
