SpaceX cargo capsule for lifting payloads to orbit. Launched on a Falcon 9 rocket. Use [dragon-v2] for the Crew Dragon version of this project.
The Dragon capsule is produced by Space Explorations Technologies of California. Designed to launch on a Falcon 9 capsule, it was initially used in cargo mode, delivering payloads to the ISS. Recovery is by parachute into the ocean.
A second model, that incorporates pusher abort engines (Super Draco) will be used for manned flight. When not needed for abort usage, the Super Draco engines are designed to be used for a propulsive touchdown on land. Use dragon-v2 for questions about Crew Dragon (SpaceX's official name for the crewed capsule)
