Dragon spacex trajectory no, maam thanominal. We hear the replay from the crew acknowledging that we have a nominal trajectory. Dragon made it to the falcon 92nd stage heading in to the low earth orbit. Where dragon separates and begins its trip the rest of the way to the space station. Well look for second stage engine cut off coming up 88 48 after launch today. So about 3 1 2 minutes from now. Dragon and falcon 92nd stage currently flying 200979 meters per second. Currently the first stage has begun its descent, its through apogee. Beginning to come back down. Where coming enough another couple of minutes well have the entry burn where we begin to throw down the first stage. Dragon spacex trajectory nominal. Copy, knowledge familiar that trajectory. Another call out. Another nominal trajectory what we love to hear. That voice you hear on board dragon, thats mike hopkins speaking for our fourperson crew as they continue their journey, now 6 12 off lift off. Trajectory still nominal. You can see on the indicator altitude, 201 kilometers. We are not beginning to essentially level out and pick up velocity to get us in to lower earth orbit. A little under one minute from the ignition for the entry burn on first stage. And about two pins dragon spacex, trajectory nominal. Copy, nominal trajectory. Great news, now seven minutes after launch. Second stage engine continues to burn. Everything looking good. And well see that continue to burn for another one minute and about 382nd.

Making sure that everything is quiet in preparation. Take a look, thats inside crew dragon right now. Our crew1 now coasting in low earth orbit. Still attached to the second stage in just a couple of minutes we should see that second stage separate and crew dragon will be flying free. The Mission Timer shows 90 seconds to dragon separation.
