Crew Dragon‘s Second Demonstration Mission

Crew Dragon’s test flight with NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley on board the spacecraft marked the return of U.S. human spaceflight and the first-time in history a commercial company successfully transported NASA astronauts to the International Space Station and back home to Earth.

To say Elon is just the money is the same as saying I don’t actually know anything about this man. On another important note. One man made commercial aviation a reality. One man, ELON MUSK made self driving cars and practical electric vehicles a reality. One man, Albert Einstein changed physics as we know it kicking off the nuclear age in the process.

[@AldenDoble]

If anyone wants to know the reason as to why the dragon capsule has the red and green coloured lights, I have took the time to write out a detailed reason which explains everything. Just a quick heads up - it is quite a long read. But I guarantee you will be fascinated by the end of it! :) It all stems back to 19th century admiralty. So we will need to start at the beginning as to why those colours were chosen for boats... Two different colours were needed for collision avoidance at night; by observing the colours, the course of ships relative to the observer could be predicted. Due to the lack of resources and materials available at the time, only primary colours in cast glass were easiest to manufacture. The reason that red was chosen for the port side is because stevedoring (docking/unloading) was done on that side, and when done at night the red light protected the dockers’ night vision. It also gave rise to the term "red light district" because of the sailors social habits upon hitting port. The starboard light had to be a contrasting colour. Blue could be achieved easily using cobalt, but blue didn’t carry very well in poor visibility conditions at sea because water vapour and spray attenuates this colour. Also, in the days of kerosene or candle lamps, most of the colour generated was in the red end of the spectrum while blue sits at the opposite end. Bearing in mind that glass filters out colour wavelengths so going for blue would leave you with little light. Green sits in the middle of the spectrum and is the first colour we get to moving away from the red end that can be clearly distinguished from red. This increased the amount of light available to pass through the filter leaving a brighter light. Green was also easy to achieve as glass tends to be naturally green anyway. Glass is also easily coloured green using copper compounds, and it also carries well in poor visibility. So, red and green it was. Moving forward a generation of long haul vessels - aircraft were invented. Aircraft also required navigational lights so they simply adopted the established lighting practice for ships. Afterall, why go through the effort of creating an entirely new system when there's a perfectly good one already in place? Finally we move onto our third and present generation of long haul vessels - spaceships. Yet again these have adopted the same lighting practice for obvious reasons. The most fascinating part about all of this, is that when we become a space fairing civilisation in hundreds of years time, people will be taught about how their spacecraft lighting system has survived over three generations of vessels, and dates back to ancient 19th century earth-based admiralty. Truly a mind boggling thought indeed!

I always heard the phrase "I was born to late to explore the earth and to early to explore space"but I'm glad to be able to see the footsteps to space exploration

[@user-lv7ph7hs7l]

Born too late to explore the world and too early to explore the stars but just right for the solar system.

[@egjowogopwro]

I have gotten emotional with this whole mission a thousand times by now, everything Spacex, Doug, and Bob accomplished is just mesmerizing, everything was so smooth and exciting. It wasn´t a long state at the ISS but everybody followed the whole thing. Bob and Doug also seem to be great people, and the fact that this was the first tripulated launch for the company is just incredible and makes it an even bigger accomplishment. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WHOLE TEAM!

[@DaliwolfBacon]

This mission was THEE bright spot for 2020 for me!!! I am 51 years old, and I have been fascinated by space flight all my life. I used to think that humans going to Mars was a pipe dream...now I think I might see it in my lifetime! You rock SpaceX!

[@odysseusrex5908]

@David Miorgan Unfortunately, ever since the merger with McDonnel Douglas, Boeing has come to be run by finance guys hired outside the company, rather than by engineers promoted within. This very different management philosophy has seriously bitten them in the butt in recent years, and they have thus far not shown an inclination to fix the problem.

[@theyremykidstoo1642]

@David Miorgan Corporations are not people, their achievements are just that, achievements. Doesn't mean that the company is doing well right now, certainly not in the past few years. And they don't "deserve respect" are you kidding me? It's a fucking company, they'd crush you if it meant they win something.
