Dragon V2 is a futuristic vehicle that not only provides a means for NASA to transport its astronauts to the orbiting outpost but also advances SpaceX’s core objective of reusability. A direct descendant of Dragon, Dragon V2 can be retrieved, refurbished and re-launched. It is a spacecraft with the potential to completely revolutionize the economics of an industry where equipment costing hundreds of millions of dollars is routinely discarded after a single use. It was presented by SpaceX CEO Elon Musk in May 2014 as the spaceship that will carry NASA astronauts to the International Space Station as soon as 2016.

SpaceX’s Dragon – America’s Next Generation Spacecraft describes the extraordinary feats of engineering and human achievement that have placed this revolutionary spacecraft at the forefront of the launch industry and positioned it as the precursor for ultimately transporting humans to Mars. It describes the design and development of Dragon, provides mission highlights of the first six Commercial Resupply Missions, and explains how Musk hopes to eventually colonize Mars.

Another great read from commercial spaceflight's pre-eminent author By BeyondHuman Once again, Erik Seedhouse has filled a gap in the books written on commercial spaceflight and written a detailed and engaging account of SpaceX's crew vehicle, the V2. This book includes a detailed account of the evolution of the design and development of the Dragon and also how the crewed vehicle will be used to ferry astronauts to the International Space Station and beyond. A great read and thoroughly recommended.
