Original Note:
The vehicle uses "yo yo de-spin" to stop rotation. It is carrying payloads for microgravity experimentation and the spin would interfere with the experiments. The technology is typically used in satellites but also applies here As noted in another video from UP Aerospace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bayeZb-TqK0&ab_channel=UPAerospace https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yo-yo_de-spin
