Earlier this month on may 6 the privately-owned American space company, SpaceX successfully tested it's Crew Dragon spacecraft designed to be on it's first manned missions in 2017.
SpaceX which was founded in 2002 made history multiple times including in 2012 when it's "Grasshopper" spacecraft took off and landed right side up. In the same year SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft delivered cargo to the International Space Station or ISS becoming the first privately-owned company to do so.
If danger strikes the human capsule will be able to detach from the rocket and parachute in to the ocean.
Well that's it for now, see you next time :].
