Arrival

Mike, Victor, Shannon, and Soichi are now successfully on their way to the ISS! Crew-1 Dragon marks the first official SpaceX mission to bring humans to space (Bob and Doug's trip was the final "demo" mission). The first of many.

Oh, and they successfully landed the first stage back on Earth, in the dark, because they just do that. Have a few incredible images from the launch.

UPDATE: And they all arrived safely! The last pic is the jaw-dropping view the astronauts enjoyed on their approach to the ISS.
