SpaceX will run a series of automatic spacecraft manoeuvres during the Dragon's trip to the ISS, all managed from its mission control center in Hawthorne, California.
"Crew-4's launch, less than two days after the return of the first all-private mission to station, exemplifies the spirit and success of the Commercial Crew Program to help maximize use of low-Earth orbit for years to come, testing the technologies we need for the Artemis program and beyond," said Kathryn Lueders, associate administrator for NASA’s space operations mission directorate in Washington.
Though he retweeted a few NASA and SpaceX bits and pieces, it's unclear how focused on the launch SpaceX CEO Elon Musk was, considering everything happening on Earth this week.
