The SpaceX Dragon is a spacecraft developed by SpaceX to transport cargo and crew to the International Space Station (ISS). It is designed to be reusable, which helps reduce the cost of space travel. The Dragon spacecraft has two versions: Cargo Dragon, for delivering supplies, and Crew Dragon, which carries astronauts. The Crew Dragon is equipped with advanced safety features, including an automated launch escape system. It can carry up to seven astronauts and is launched atop a Falcon 9 rocket. Since its first flight in 2010, the Dragon has played a crucial role in supporting missions to the ISS.
