The Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft approaches the International Space Station (ISS) on July 20, 2019 marking the 50th anniversary of the American moon landing and carrying three engineers to the station. The Soyuz is currently the only option available to NASA for seeing astronauts to the ISS; a fact that could change soon once the SpaceX Crew Dragon passes certification. (Image credits: NASA)

Hawthorne, California-based astronautic manufacturer and launch service provider Space Exploration Technologies Corp (SpaceX) successfully became the first private corporation in the world earlier this month when it launched NASA astronauts Col. Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley to the International Space Station (ISS) as part of the Dragon DM-2 mission that aims to certify SpaceX's Crew Dragon 2 vehicle for manned launches to the ISS.
