Their inflight abort test went today, with a planned 'abort' right past Max-Q around 2 min after launch.

It appeared to go off without a hitch, proving it could save the astronauts if a launch abort was required at that dynamic phase of the launch.

Hopefully in 2-3 month they'll be launching 2 NASA Astronauts to the ISS for the first Crew Dragon launch (short 2 week test flight planned), followed by regular flights with 3-4 Astronauts.

Very cool, can’t wait as it’s been too long since the US launched its own crews.

Congrats to SpaceX. This was the kind of mission success Boeing needed to demonstrate a few weeks ago.

Yeah the Boeing launch was a disappointment, the capsule going off course due to a simple timing error.

Both have had setbacks but regardless of who gets their first, I hope they are both flying trips regularly as soon as safely possible.
