The first all-civilian crew has returned to Earth after a three-day space tour. Their carrier touched down in the Atlantic, off #Florida’s coast, on September 18. The trip was run by #SpaceX, the private rocketry company founded by Elon Musk. It marked the debut flight of Musk’s new space tourism business, and a leap ahead of competitors likewise offering rides on rocket ships to civilians.
