SpaceX Dragon

Plan for SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft to return NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams was decided in August.

NASA in June tapped the company to build the U.S. deorbit vehicle (DV) that will return the orbital laboratory to Earth in pieces at the end of the decade.

Company is looking for buyers for its space program, which includes the Starliner vehicle and operating parts of the ISS.

Following splashdown, crewmembers were flown to a local hospital, where one remains in ‘stable condition,’ NASA says.

Crew spent nearly eight months aboard the International Space Station conducting more than 200 scientific experiments.

NASA officials will enlist SpaceX’s Dragon to return the crew of Boeing’s Starliner, which suffered several issues on its way to the ISS.

Four astronauts will travel to the ends of the Earth on the Fram2 mission, flown by SpaceX on behalf of Bitcoin entrepreneur Chun Wang.

Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams have been on the International Space Station for more than two months despite an intended eight-day stay.

According to reports, NASA is weighing Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams’ return on a SpaceX Dragon.
