Dragon (SpaceX)

Dragon is a spacecraft developed by SpaceX designed for transporting cargo and crew to the International Space Station (ISS) and beyond. It features advanced engines and heat shielding to survive launch and re-entry, and can safely deliver supplies and astronauts. The spacecraft is reusable, meaning it can be used for multiple missions, reducing costs. Its capabilities include docking autonomously with the ISS, providing life support for crew, and returning materials safely to Earth. Dragon has played a key role in NASA’s commercial crew and cargo programs, helping facilitate human spaceflight and supply missions with efficiency and reliability.
