Last year, SpaceX said it was developing the Crew Dragon spacecraft to transport astronauts to the ISS international space station and now officially announced the first images of its interior with design. minimalist , not only ensures safety but also helps astronauts more comfortable. Crew Dragon is expected to be put into use in 2017.

Gorgeous interior inside Crew Dragon ship

The ship was designed to give astronauts comfort, they could look at Earth, Moon and other planets while sitting on carbon fiber and Alcantara positions.

The screen displays trip information, destination, route, information, data, .

The interiors of previous generations of spacecraft like Apollo capsules or Space Shuttle are complex, filled with buttons, switches and electronic devices. However, for SpaceX's Crew Dragon, the interior is completely different, it seems that engineers have simplified everything. On the other hand, all coverings, locking mechanisms, etc. are replaced by curved partitions, dominant black and white tones and made of carbon fiber and Alcantara fabric .

Crew Dragon operates completely automatically but can still intervene controlled by crew or control center below ground.

A large screen is equipped in the ship to provide technical information and data for the crew. Since most of the ship's operations are automated, the screen mainly displays information but SpaceX says that in an emergency, astronauts on it still have control or support. from the ground checkpoint.

The emergency rescue system is being tested for Crew Dragon to bring astronauts safely to the ground when the incident occurs.

SpaceX revealed that they are experimenting with an emergency release system , which allows the ship to safely return to the ground and especially G-force (the extra force when the object accelerates with height) The astronauts are just like playing rollercoasters.

The temperature inside the cabin is automatically controlled by the Environmental Control system and ECLSS life support.

In addition to safety, SpaceX also designed the interior towards comfort for astronauts, leaving the previous way of treating astronauts like 'canned meat cold' (Spam in a can). . The 4 positions in the ship are fully equipped, and the cabin temperature will automatically control within 18-27 degrees Celsius by the Environmental Control system and ECLSS life support .
