SpaceX, the space exploration company founded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, was the first privately-owned company to launch a privately-manned spacecraft.
NASA says NASA's crew, a spacecraft carrying two astronauts, was launched at dawn on the 31st and entered the orbit stably.
Astronauts will stay on the International Space Station for up to four months and perform research missions.
The crew dragon is operated by a touch screen rather than a button, unlike previous manned spaceships, and astronauts wore sleek space suits tailored to the crew dragon seats.
In particular, it was evaluated that the launch of a manned spacecraft in the United States was only nine years after the Atlantis in 2011, and the successful launch today has opened the era of civil space exploration.
