Upon arriving on the space station, Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken 'captured the flag.' The flag was left there during NASA's final shuttle mission, STS-135, which included Hurley, with the intention that the next crew to launch from the US would capture it.
In case you were wondering, the new SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft, named Endeavour by the crew, has that new car smell.
"When the hatch opened, you could tell it was a new vehicle," said NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy, who welcomed the new residents to the International Space Station."It was wonderful to see my friends and a brand-new vehicle." Cassidy has been on board the station since April. Cassidy, along with newly arrived NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, participated in a press conference on the International Space Station Monday.

BREAKING: Millions Of Americans Sucked Out Into Space After NASA Accidentally Open Airlock Above HeadquartersWASHINGTON—Millions of Americans were reportedly sucked into the vacuum of outer space Tuesday after the country’s airlock accidentally opened above NASA’s headquarters in what the agency is calling a significant technical error. “Earlier this morning, a computational malfunction opened the NASA Earth Airlock above our Washington D.C. headquarters, sending millions of individuals, cars, and livestock flying upwards into the sky and out into the reaches of outer space,” said agency administrator Jim Bridenstine, urging concerned citizens to hold tight to any nearby flora or support beams to cope with the explosive depressurization and oxygen rushing from the open airlock into the cold expanse of space. “Rest assured that we are working on a solution to temporarily patch the N.E.A.’s open hatch with some duct tape and a large sheet of plastic as quickly as possible. However, we deeply apologize for any who have lost a loved one, whether through differential pressure crushing their skull or simply being jettisoned into the unfathomable depths of space.” Agency administrators admitted this was the worst terrestrial airlock accident since 1969&39;s Apollo 11 mission when rapid depressurization catapulted the Saturn V rocket out of the Earth’s atmosphere and directly to the surface of the Moon.
