"The increasing number of graham crackers and chocolate bars in orbit has created a growing risk of Kessler s'mores."

Only tangentially related to SpaceX. Just found it uncanny that comic versions of reentry capsules look like Dragon2s now.

Do you mean to say "re-entry capsules like the Dragon look like the Apollo capsule?"

I don't see anything distinctive that makes it look like the Dragon. No round top covering the docking port, no thrusters at the base.

That could be any American re-entry capsule since the apollo era, including the Boeing Starliner.

But it looks distinctly not like SpaceX Dragon 2.
