Re-Enter the Dragon

Human space travel news:
For the first time, a commercial spacecraft gently returned to Earth from orbit on Wednesday.
There wasn't anyone inside. It was a test. NASA wants someone to build a way for their astronauts to visit the Space Station, and this is one of the entries. The cabin was pressurized, and everything went well.
“If there were people sitting in the Dragon capsule today, they would have had a very nice ride,” Mr. Musk said.
Very sweet.
Save me a seat.
