The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft and it’s historic flight launched on May 22, 2012 from the SpaceX launchpad at Cape Canaveral headed for the International Space Station.

Three days later on the 25th, the spacecraft became the first commercial spacecraft in history to successfully dock with the ISS.

Splashdown occurred in the Pacific ocean on May 31st, 2012. Thus completing this historic voyage in perfect form.
