It will be about an hour for Bob and Doug to get out, as they have to load the capsule onboard the recovery vessel. This was awesome.
Still waiting for the capsule to be opened. They are venting trace vapors from the service section of the dragon capsule, but none seen inside the inhabited capsule.
Hatch open!
Finally, both Bob and Doug are out, Doug as the commander was the last one out.

Next is a man'd mission to the Moon and set up a base on the Moon. Then next onto a man'd mission to Mars.
Nasa had sent a mission to Mars just the other day. They launched a Rocket with a Mars Rover onboard and also for the first time there is a Drone Aircraft onboard with the Rover.
They did not use a SpaceX built Falcon Rocket for that trip thou, but instead they used a two-stage Atlas V-541 launch vehicle.
The vehicle was provided by United Launch Alliance, a joint venture of Boeing Co. and Lockheed Martin Corp.
NASA spokes person said today that they have the biggest budget that they have ever had and missions will be going forward.
