SpaceX Crew Dragon

What is the SpaceX Crew Dragon? Commercial space companies and national bodies are working closer together in an effort to reduce the costs of space travel. SpaceX’s Crew Dragon is just one example.

Since the Space Shuttle was retired in 2011, the only way that astronauts have been able to travel to and from the International Space Station (ISS) has been via Russian Soyuz spacecraft. NASA has therefore commissioned private companies SpaceX and Boeing to deliver new spacecraft designed to ferry astronauts to the ISS and back.

In March 2019 the SpaceX-designed ‘Crew Dragon’ became the first privately owned spacecraft to successfully dock with the ISS. In 2020 it will return - this time with astronauts on board.

NASA is planning to send two of its astronauts to the ISS aboard the Crew Dragon, in what will be SpaceX's first ever crewed mission to space. The launch was initially set to take place on Wednesday 27 May, but bad weather forced NASA to cancel with only 20 minutes to go.
