Inspiration4 Adventure
It was a big week for the future of civilian and tourist space flight! SpaceX completed the first "all-private" crew to space in a Dragon capsule on a Falcon 9 rocket. The Inspiration4 mission was privately funded and will be raising money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
The crew orbited the Earth for 3 days - can you imagine it? Then they returned safely home from what will be the first of many such missions.
You can learn more about the crew members here: https://www.upi.com/.../SpaceX.../7831631288629/, and more about the entire mission here: https://inspiration4.com/.
Special shout-out to the stuffed golden retriever tagging along for the adventure.
