@Ffej_Vobil @SpaceX They reenter sooner or later. In fact the ISS loses several meters of altitude each round trip due to atmospheric drag.

@SpaceX Always wonder if there is away to keep those solar panels in space, instead of burning them up. Start your own space station? -
@CSmithson80 Also, the trunk with the solar panels also carries the Dragon's radiators that remove heat from the electronics. -
@SpaceX@John_Gardi I hadn't thought about the heat dissipation properties of the trunk. Makes sense now. -
@CSmithson80:@SpaceX borrowed from the book of Soyuz for the radiators. It's a coil of tubing around the trunk. Don't know what fluid used. -
@CSmithson80 If you look at images of the Dragon capsule, you'll see the 'Dragon Claw' that connects to the trunk for power, cooling & data.
