A view along the bridle trough (the groove at around 11:00; parachute lines are stowed in this trough until the spacecraft transitions from a single point to a two point suspension system).

To the left of the bridle trough, near the back of the spacecraft, is the flashing recovery light, in the deployed position.

The metal ring in the foreground is part of the parachute system, and the triangular-shaped yellow box (with metal tabs on the bottom) toward the right is used to stow additional parachute lines.
