NASA's Commercial Crew Program

NASA's Commercial Crew Program is an initiative aimed at developing safe and reliable crew transportation to and from the International Space Station (ISS) using private companies. By partnering with companies like SpaceX and Boeing, NASA seeks to reduce costs and increase efficiency in space travel, fostering innovation in the aerospace industry. This program enables astronauts to fly aboard commercially built spacecraft, ensuring that the U.S. can transport crew members without relying solely on foreign vehicles, thus enhancing space exploration capabilities and supporting the future of human activities in low Earth orbit.
