Enter the Dragon: First Look Inside SpaceX’s New Crew Transporter to Orbit

Would you like to ‘Enter the Dragon’ for an up close look inside SpaceX’s new ‘V2′ crew transport ship to Earth orbit and the space station?

We’ve compiled a stunning collection of imagery revealing what it’s like to actually stand within the gleaming walls of the futuristic Dragon spaceship from an astronauts perspective. Check out the gallery of Dragon V2 imagery above and below.



Experience this exciting new chapter of American ‘Commercial Human Spaceflight’ coming to fruition.


NASA’s Commercial Crew Program (CCP) is a public private partnership between NASA and a trio of amazing American aerospace companies – SpaceX, Boeing amd Sierra Nevada – to create inexpensive but reliable new astronaut spaceships to the High Frontier.


And NASA’s unprecedented commercial crew program is so far ahead of any international competitors that I think they’ll soon be knocking at the door and regret not investing in a similar insightful manner.


The goal is to get American’s back in space on American rockets from American soil – rather than being totally dependent on Russian rocket technology and Soyuz capsules for astronaut rides to the International Space Station (ISS) and back.
