On Sunday 15 September, the capsule of the Polaris Dawn mission, orchestrated by the private astronautics and space flight company SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk, landed successfully in Florida after five days in orbit. A first in history.<\/p>\n

This is a historic moment. On Tuesday 10 September, SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Although the Polaris Dawn mission was postponed for several days for technical and then meteorological reasons, it achieved all its objectives and landed on the water five days later. Let’s take a look back at this memorable week<\/strong>, which marked a significant step forward in private space exploration, but also in the conquest of space by civilians.<\/p>\n
