On Sunday, May 21 at 5:37 p.m. ET (21:37 UTC), Falcon 9 launched Axiom Space's Axiom Mission 2 (Ax-2) to the International Space Station from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Following stage separation, Falcon 9's first stage landed on Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
Dragon will autonomously dock with the space station on Monday, May 22 at approximately 9:16 a.m. ET (13:16 UTC).
During their time on the orbiting laboratory, the crew will conduct over 20 science and technology experiments in areas such as human physiology, physical sciences, and STEAM to help expand knowledge to benefit life on Earth in areas such as healthcare, materials, technology development, and enable industrial advances.
The webcast will resume approximately two hours prior to docking.
Amazing approach, docking, and greeting ceremony! Eleven astronauts on the International Space Station at the same time. WOW, it gives me great happiness and chills of pride in USA, NASA, SpaceX, and the countries of Russia, Saudi Arabia and The United Emerites for working together for the betterment of the WORLD in space. Terrific job, astronauts!!!

As we walk through life it's like having your face in the camera you don't think you just let God think for you and you walk through life in the moment with no memories in order to take a picture you'll have to think about it first which pushes you back into this realm as children that's why they don't pay attention to us they're silent for the most part and looking around the world absorbing what's going on they don't think because gods doing it for them and if you get it you're alive right now that means it's doing it for you to
So when you get in an accident what's happening is it speeding time up for you because you smash your face into the camera so hard you stop thinking you let it do it for you you have no memories for the most part and you just experience life quickly and try to make decisions as fast as possible while you take your finger off of yeah the camera you're just watching what's going on and you're not taking any memories because tiff a slow time down to do that and it's trying to keep you alive so it's trying to get you to think faster than everything else around you that's what that feeling is as you come out of it you'll see it fade for the next two or three seconds and you look around wondering what actually happened but you remember you felt so alive just a moment ago just like when you were 2yrs OLD

I watched Dragon fly over my house on the night of the launch, here in Plymouth UK. It was about 20 minutes after take-off, and it came up fast (ish) but slow compared to when it was directly overhead of us and then it seemed to increase at a rate of knots out of view to the northeast I believe. It was such an amazing moment and my first. My twin brother who lives with me has often gone out to watch the space station go over and I didn't think it could be so clear. Go SpaceX and go Ax-2, I hope you have a successful mission.

great job on the docking. However, I would have liked have seen the docking. Not sure why we didn't see it. That one of the reasons why this video is up. very disappointing.

Question: Why wouldn't you show the actual docking!??
@johnschneider3082 Says:
Yeah,well tell that to Russia!
@willow3-507 Says:
ISS speed while in Orbit is 17,400mph, or 8km per seconds, Therefore, AX-2 DRAGON has a little bit faster speed during approach and docking.

At first, it sorta looked like Balok's ship, pulsing lights and everything.

I wonder if Dragon smells like a new car, and if the Space Station, smells like a musty old station wagon? 😳🤣🤣

Why didn’t they show the actual docking? Why have us looking at everyone on their computers ?? Maybe next time?

Some of the cameras on the ISS show extensive radiation damage.

Even simple people on YouTube share your videos better than you. The first thing you can add subtitles for the video in all languages of the world. The second thing is that there are no English speakers here. There are followers from all over the world 😡😡😡
