Film ruler from the first carrier ship flew over the Earth

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket brought SpaceX’s cruise to 4 astronauts from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on March 31, to a trajectory that has never been to the private mission Fram2. The commander and sponsor for the mission is Chun Wang (Malta). The remaining three members of the crew, including the commander of Jannicke Mikkelsen (Norway), pilot Rabea Rogge (Germany) and medical expert Eric Phillips (Australia).

“Today, we performed the 681 mission to fly through the Kármán street (the boundary between the earth’s atmosphere and the universe at an altitude of 100 km), and the 626 flew around the Earth,” Wang wrote on social network X right after reaching orbit.

Despite being the 626th mission flying around the Earth, Fram2 is the task of carrying the first person to fly in trajectory instead of flying around the equator. Even the astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) have never seen the scenery that the Fram2 crew is admiring. This trajectory requires a special launch in the south through Florida and Cuba.

On April 1, SpaceX shared the film filmed from the open nose cover at the front door of the Crew Dragon, revealing the ship’s arch window with the white land of the Earth’s polarity passed below. “The first images of the Earth’s extreme from the Dragon ship,” SpaceX commented.

According to SpaceX, the Dragon will fly from the north to the south pole every 46 minutes. In the next few days, there will be more images of the earth’s poles, especially when the crew entered the Dragon Cupola, the 1.2 -m width of the width of the space overlooking the space. This is the second Dragon ship with arched windows.

The Fram2 crew is expected to conduct 22 experiments on a 3-5 -day flight, including mushroom growing experiments in the first space and a machine that first took X -ray of human body in orbit. Other experiments will investigate how micro gravity affects the musculoskeletal system of people on space flight.

The Fram2 mission will end with a landing to the Pacific – for the first time with a mission with a crew of SpaceX. The ships carrying other people landed off Florida, but SpaceX was shifting to the west coast of the United States to reduce the possibility of debris of ships harmful to people or property on the road to the earth.

A last experiment will take place during the landing, because the crew will not receive medical support and move that astronauts often receive after space flight, when their bodies adapt to gravity.
