Since none of the previous manned spacecraft entered polar orbit and flew across the poles of the earth, the crew will observe the earth in an unprecedented way this time.

The rocket will send the spacecraft into a polar orbit with an orbit of 90 degrees.Astronauts will fly over the poles of the earth, explore the poles from an altitude of about 430 kilometers from the ground, and study human health in the space environment.

The mission is named after the Norwegian polar expedition ship "Fram" and lasts for 3 to 5 days.

According to the mission website, the team will conduct 22 experiments, including the first time taking X-ray images of human bodies in space, the first time trying to plant mushrooms in space, etc.

Astronauts will also use wearable devices to monitor health data such as sleep, stress, hormone levels, blood sugar during the mission, and study the impact of space flight and microgravity environment on human health.

According to Space Exploration Technology, the Dragon spacecraft will splash near the California coast when it returns to Earth with four people.This will be the first time the company's manned spacecraft has splashed down in the Pacific Ocean.
