Leave it to SpaceX to make a suit that can survive the vacuum of space and also use a touch screen. Take a look at the development of the SpaceX Crew Dragon, from the space suits to the touch-screen user interface that the astronauts used on the May 27 launch.
“Today is about reigniting the dream of space and getting people fired up about the future,” says SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, emphasizing that the Falcon 9 Crew Dragon launch on May 27, 2020, should inspire people from all walks of life to imagine the future’s vast possibilities. “Anyone who has within them the spirit of exploration should be excited about what’s going on.”
The launch is only possible thanks to painstakingly designed hardware and software, the creation of which is lightly documented in two new videos from SpaceX.
