Two years after SpaceX flew its first astronauts to the International Space Station in the Crew Dragon capsule, the company has revealed it’s ending production of the spacecraft.
The move to end production of the Crew Dragon is reportedly due in part to the company’s desire to shift resources toward its next-generation Starship launch vehicle — comprising the Super Heavy booster and Starship spacecraft — that’s expected to embark on lunar missions and even voyages to Mars in the coming years.
The four-seat Crew Dragon first flew to the space station in an uncrewed test flight in 2019. A year later, NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken took the first crewed flight to the ISS, carried into space by SpaceX’s workhorse Falcon 9 rocket. Behnken gave a video tour of the Crew Dragon on their way to the station.
