First SpaceX flight with astronauts will take place May 27 – IT Pro – News

Soyuz track record is unbeaten so far. It’s an outdated design, but bon, it does the job and does it well.
Crew dragon is a serious advance on the Russians in terms of comfort and capacity and probably a serious advance on the SLS / Space Shuttle in terms of safety / reliability.

Still sorry that boeing has come for the dream chaser with their starliner (or first tout court …, their track record is just abysmal and they obviously don’t bake much of it so far (yes I know, it’s complex and difficult, but also with the Starliner they have taken software solutions to solve hardware problems, just like with the 737 Max, so their first test flight completely went wrong)).

Sierra Nevada’s Dream chaser is still the bomb in my opinion, a better compromise than the space shuttle between safety / reliability and luxury / comfort / controllability than the capsule variants.
Contrary to what this article says or shows, Sierra Nevada does not get money for a crew dream chaser, but only for a cargo version. Sierra Nevada hopes to make a crew version with the money from the cargo afterwards.
