SpaceX Falcon 9/Dragon COTS flight to International Space Station

04:10 Sep 14, 2020 4 6

This video illustrates SpaceX's vision for providing crew transportation services to the International Space Station. Falcon 9 has nine Merlin engines clustered together. This vehicle will be capable of sustaining an engine failure at any point in flight and still successfully completing its mission. This actually results in an even higher level of reliability than a single engine stage. The SpaceX nine engine architecture is an improved version of the architecture employed by the Saturn V and Saturn I rockets of the Apollo Program, which had flawless flight records despite losing engines on a number of missions. The Dragon spacecraft is made up of a pressurized capsule and unpressurized trunk used for Earth-to-LEO transport of pressurized cargo, unpressurized cargo, and/or crew members. Initiated internally by SpaceX in 2005, Dragon will be utilized to fulfill the NASA COTS contract for demonstration of cargo re-supply of the ISS.
