WE SENT A DRAGON INTO SPACE!
WELL, NOT A REAL DRAGON.

On a screen behind him appears a picture of a space vehicle.

Daniel says LET ME EXPLAIN.
THIS PAST SATURDAY,
SPACEX SENT UP A DRAGON VEHICLE
INTO SPACE
AND DOCKED IT ON
THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION.
ALSO KNOWN AS THE CREW DRAGON,
THIS CAPSULE IS INTENDED TO
SAFELY TRANSFER
CREWMEMBERS TO THE ISS.
THE DRAGON WAS ABLE TO
SUCCESSFULLY
ATTACH TO THE ISS
AUTONOMOUSLY.
MEANING THAT IT BASICALLY
DID IT ITSELF.
NOW, ABOARD THE ISS AT THE TIME
WAS CANADIAN ASTRONAUT
DAVID SAINT-JACQUES
AND AMERICAN ASTRONAUT
ANNE MCCLAIN
WHO OVERSAW THE DOCKING PROCESS
FROM THE CUPOLA,
WHICH IS A LARGE BAY WINDOW
ONBOARD.
THEY HAVE THE POWER TO COMMAND
THE DRAGON TO HOLD,
RETREAT, OR EVEN
ABORT THE MISSION
IF THERE WERE
ANY SIGNS OF DANGER.
THEY WERE BASICALLY
THE DRAGON TAMERS.
BUT WHO WAS THE FEARLESS
KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR
THAT WAS RIDING THE DRAGON,
YOU ASK.
WELL, IT WAS A DUMMY
NAMED RIPLEY
AND HER SMALL, EARTH-SHAPED TOY.
YOU HEARD ME.
THIS LAUNCH WAS THE LATEST
IN MULTIPLE TESTS
THAT THE DRAGON MUST PASS
BEFORE NASA DEEMS THE CAPSULE
SAFE FOR HUMAN TRANSPORT.
SO IF YOU THINK YOU HAD IT HARD
WITH YOUR MATH TEST
THINK AGAIN!
THE DRAGON STILL NEEDS
A LOT MORE TESTING.
ON FRIDAY IT WILL BE
JOURNEYING BACK TO EARTH.
ENGINEERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT
THE FIERY SUPER-SPEED DESCENT
THROUGH OUR ATMOSPHERE.
I MEAN, IT IS A DRAGON,
AFTER ALL.
BUT IF EVERYTHING
GOES AS PLANNED
REAL ASTRONAUTS COULD BE
RIDING THE DRAGON
AS EARLY AS JULY.
NOW, IF YOU ENJOYED
THESE SPACE STORIES
YOU'RE REALLY GONNA
WANNA STICK AROUND
FOR OUR FEATURED STORY
COMING UP NEXT.
