🇺🇸 CREW DRAGON ENDEAVOUR RETURNS FOR RECORD-BREAKING SIXTH FLIGHT JULY 31 SpaceX’s Crew-11 mission is locked in for July 31, marking Endeavour’s sixth trip to orbit, more than any Dragon before it. Launching from Kennedy Space Center’s pad 39A, the crew includes astronauts from NASA, Japan, and Russia. They’ll ride aboard a Falcon 9 booster fresh off three prior missions. NASA’s tight ISS schedule means this launch threads a narrow window between Crew-10’s departure and CRS-33’s arrival. Bonus: Endeavour will debut upgraded parachutes designed for safer splashdowns.

It's Peggy Whitson and crew punching through the atmosphere. Dragon left the ISS this morning, now it's racing home at 17,500 mph. Recovery boats standing by. Space travel ending with style: fire, thunder, and saltwater. Source: @SpaceX
