History made by America, NASA launches HumanX space mission SpaceX


Washington, Ta. 31 May 2020, Sunday

Bad weather made it difficult for the United States to make history in space on Friday. But today, May 31, the Dragon spacecraft of NASA's private company SpaceX successfully flew to the International Space Station with two astronauts. Two astronauts, Robert Behenken and Douglas Hurley, have departed for the International Space Station via the Dragon spacecraft.

Capsules reach Earth orbit: Trump

After the successful launch, US President Trump said, "I am thrilled to announce that the SpaceX Dragon Capsule has successfully reached Earth orbit and our astronaut is safe and sound. This is the beginning of a new era of American ambition. " Nine years later, the United States was preparing to make history, but on May 27, bad weather forced the human space mission to halt.

The Falcon rocket was fitted with SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft, and both astronauts have traveled to the International Space Station before.

Alan Musk is the owner of the spacecraft

SpaceX is the company of American businessman Alan Musk and is working with NASA on a number of future space missions. NASA has resumed its commercial crew program after 9 years and after the success of this mission, America will not have to seek the help of Russia and European countries to send its astronauts into space.

What will astronauts do in the ISS?

Both astronauts will stay in space for 110 days. The SpaceX Dragon capsule can stay in space together for 210 days and will have to come to Earth for later repairs. At that point both astronauts will return or send the other two astronauts aboard the space station back to Earth instead.
