Yesterday (May 31), two NASA astronauts crossed over into the International Space Station (ISS) after their Crew Dragon tablet docked with the orbital outpost inside of a 19 hour of adventure from Flordia (US).
“This is the first time in human history @NASA_Astronauts have entered the @Space_Station from a commercially-made spacecraft. @AstroBehnken and @Astro_Doug have finally arrived at the orbiting laboratory in @SpaceX`s Dragon Endeavour spacecraft,” NASA tweeted.

Earlier on May 31 at 12:52 AM IST, Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk-owned SpaceX created history by becoming the first private rocket corporate to launch two American astronauts towards orbit from Florida, of their 2nd try after the primary one was once deferred because of the deficient climate stipulations.

The project is essential because it marks the primary spaceflight of NASA astronauts from American soil after an opening of over 9 years (2011).
Astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center in a SpaceX Falcon nine rocket.
