Parallel parking, but make it interstellar.
POV: Fixed to the approach rail, you watch a cargo freighter’s spine slide past, stern-first, bleeding off speed as it backs in for docking. Retro thrusters flicker, nav lights march by, and the ribbed truss of containers glides close to the lens while the ship settles into the lane on a long, steady deceleration burn. Precision, inertia, and scale in one quiet pass.
Stay to the end to catch the last puffs of braking and the moment the drift finally dies.
