Op een YT-livestream meekijken hoe de eerste privaat bekostigde (nu nog) onbemande capsule aanmeert bij het International Space Station, terwijl de raket die hem de atmosfeer uit jankte doodleuk verticaal landde alsof het niks is. DAT is het entertainment wat de moderne man verdient, want voor de rest is er nooit iets te doen. Zoals bovenstaand te zien valt vliegt de capsule al in dezelfde baan onder ISS, en wordt verwacht dat hij vandaag rond 12:00 op de voordeur klopt. Foto's van de voordeur, uitleg van de capsule, interview met de aanstaande crew en meer, na de breek!
