I believe that’s Gwynne Shotwell walking into shot in SpaceX Mission Control. She sat down at Gwynne’s usual front row seat, coffee mug in hand!

Dragon backlit by camera radiation damage.
LEO is the ocean, not an island (let alone a continent). We create cruise liners to ride the oceans, not artificial islands in the middle of them. We need a physical place, which has physical resources, to make our future out there.

Dragon 2 HUD view - first time we've seen this. Heading to the KOS (Keep Out Sphere), but that screen. This is what the astros will use. Very nice layout.
