| description | In May, after more than five months docked to the International Space Station, SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft Resilience returned to Earth, landing in the Gulf of Mexico under four main parachutes. Crew-1, the first operational mission of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, launched to the ISS with four astronauts from Kennedy Space Center in Florida in November 2020. The second operational crew lifted off in April aboard the Crew Dragon Endeavour, docked with ISS and returned to Earth in November. The Soldier Center also continued developing the next generation of Joint Precision Airdrops Systems in the 23- to 230-kg (ultralight) weight class and 11- to 23-kg weight class. The center conducted demonstrations in March and May at Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona. |
