T-49 minutes for the second operational flight (third mission including the initial test mission) of the SpaceX Dragon capsule to the International Space Station, 1 March 2013.

I’ll be liveblogging the vent from the VAB roof/ Press Site at KSC the day of!
This photo by SpaceX, is NASA astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson and SpaceX founder Elon Musk check out the interior of the company’s Dragon capsule.
The photo is from a December 2010 article on NBC’s Cosmic Log website…who knew NBC had such a log? Pretty good read. I enjoyed the part where Musk talks about what he’d do if he was just looking to make money:
Musk said that if he was in this just for the money, he’d go back to setting up Internet ventures instead. “Making money there is like falling off a log,” he said. “I’m sure I can make something better than, say, FarmVille.”
