I assume they are bringing cameras to take pictures out of the dome window? I'm looking forward to seeing how those come out.

Yes of course. They’re also planned to have a slightly modified dragon with a external camera attached as well.

There's an entire Netflix show/documentary planned around this.

That's great they got to invite a physician assistant from St Judes for the ride. Great experience for a 29yr old.

She's a childhood cancer survivor too. Pretty neat story.

I, um, can think of more efficient ways to spend money on healthcare than sending four people into space.
