On 21st of September 2015 “SpaceX” did a Test firing on their newly improve Falcon nine Merlin engines, the testing was on the Densified Propellant… the new testing of the modified engines of the nine Merlin’s increase in sea level thrust of 170,000 from its previous 147,000 pounds… with the newly acquired thrust is hopefully to increase in Payload weight in given packaging on the Dragon nine Cargo or Manned to the international space station as it due to replace the Russian Federal Space Agency, RKA’s tendership of Crew Transport on the Soyuz, manned Progress Command Module… The test firing, a planned fifteen seconds, testing the first stage at Space X’s McGregor Test Launch facilities at Texas….

 

SPACE X |the sleek Luxurious Dragon interior……

Command modules come a long way from the days of Apollo; the Space Shuttle also the Soyuz program, especially the design technology ergonomics aspects and it’s functionally. As the days of building up to when the Soyuz tendership from launching passengering Astronauts and Cosmonauts   starts to expire from the Russian Federal Space Agency, Roscosmos end once” NASA”” Boeing’s” Orion and “Space X’s Dragon Manned Command Module” takes its place …

As for the interior in this was based on utilizing the up to date technologies.  One or many things that I like about the Manned Dragon nine Module, is the clean white tidy lines inside with the basics colours of white and black, in allowing more outside therefore using less energy to light up the interior for seven crew members….also the interior resemble something out from the a pimp out white out Nissan Skyline..

As with the central console in which allows navigation, communications and Helm control… noting everything is wireless connected that you could control the vehicle from a tablet or through an EVA suit as the Orion Command Module is which makes everything efficient…  looking at the main console is there’s no switches like the old days of Apollo Module replacing is a tri touch screen in which reduces the accidental switching in which is housed in protective housing… It should very interesting to see the NASA Boeing Orion Module interior would looks whether it would looks very sleek likes Space X Manned Dragon’s Command Module..
