I’m starting to wonder if they are having real trouble bringing this capsule back up. There have been significant periods where that wheel has not turned at all. You would think that it would be continuously moving if there where no problems.

They had some trouble on the first trial run. They’re on the way down on a second run with no one in it.

They did stop letting out cable for a while. Now they are lowering it again.

I noticed the cable from the winch to the wheel seems to be bouncing as they let it out.
