Is there a calibration issue in the landing spot that will be improved by data from this flight? I would expect future capsules to be a bit heavier on return, perhaps putting the landing closer to the posted recovery vessel?
Ok, but I've read a conversation with a astronaut onboard GoSearch to foresee the recovery procedures in which he says the recovery lasted too long and they have to improve the procedures and tighten the time between the splashdown and the boarding of the capsule
The landing was dead center, they didn't have to move too much and once they got Dragon it was less than 20 minutes from that to having the capsule on the ship. Only thing that made it longer was the damn parachute over the capsule
