After their journey, the crew will land in the ocean off the U.S. West Coast. SpaceX executive Jessica Jensen mentioned the goal to make space travel as routine as air travel, allowing everyone to fly.
This mission marks a historic first, with SpaceX continuing its efforts to develop accessible and routine space travel for everyone.
