SpaceX Prepares for Historic Fram2 Polar Orbit Mission

The private astronaut mission, funded by Chun Wang, is set to launch March 31, marking the first human spaceflight to polar orbit and pioneering new research in space exploration.

Fram2 will send four civilian astronauts, including mission commander Chun Wang, into polar orbit for the first time in human spaceflight history.
The mission will last three to five days, conducting research on atmospheric phenomena like STEVE and capturing the first human X-ray in space.
The Crew Dragon Resilience spacecraft, modified with a cupola for enhanced Earth views, will splash down off the West Coast for the first time.
The mission highlights the growing role of private funding in space exploration and aims to inspire public curiosity about science and technology.
Fram2 follows SpaceX's record-setting Crew-10 mission, achieving the fastest turnaround between human spaceflights from the same launch pad.
