SpaceX, NASA launch first operational commercial crew mission to space

SpaceX on Sunday launched four astronauts on a flight to the International Space Station (ISS), NASA's first full-fledged mission sending a crew into orbit aboard a privately owned spacecraft.

The newly-designed Crew Dragon capsule, which the crew has dubbed Resilience, lifted off atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
