I was going to write a few words about the COVID situation but what the heck... quite an important event took place here on Sunday-Monday, overshadowed by the pain of the pandemic and politics ridiculousness: A SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft carrying four American and Japanese astronauts was launched with a Falcon 9 and docked the International Space Station. First time by a private company, as a routine mission. The demo mission with two on board NASA astronauts took place back in May. Here are two nice summary videos from NASA, first with the launch, second with the docking:

🚀 NASA's SpaceX Crew-1 Flight Day #2 Highlights 🚀
Stay safe :)
