The crew of the Ax-4 mission with the Pole Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski flies to the International Space Station in the new Dragon capsule. The astronauts have chosen the name Grace for this spacecraft.
At 13 minutes after liftoff from Cape Canaveral, the words were uttered from Mission Control: "On behalf of the entire SpaceX team, thank you. It has been an honor to work with you thus far, and we are excited that you will have a safe flight and a safe return home. Good things come to those who wait. Good luck to the crew of Grace's maiden flight."
This means that the new Dragon capsule, which is flying the Ax-4 crew to the International Space Station, has been given the name Grace, or grace (which can also be translated as grace). The name for the spacecraft was chosen by its first passengers, the mission's astronauts.
The Dragon Grace crew capsule (serial number C213) is the latest, fifth reusable Dragon spacecraft manufactured and operated by SpaceX. (PAP)
