The SpaceX Dragon C106 is a Cargo Dragon space capsule built by SpaceX.[1] It is the first reused SpaceX Dragon capsule to be reflown into space, having its second launch in 2017.[2] This marked the second occasion that SpaceX launched previously spacelaunched hardware, after reusing Falcon 9 first stage B1021 earlier in 2017; this was the first time SpaceX reused a capsule.[3] Capsule 106 was first used on mission NASA SpaceX CRS-4, and then used again for the NASA SpaceX CRS-11 mission.[4] This reuse of the spacecraft marks a milestone in SpaceX's drive to reduce spacelaunch costs through reusing hardware.[5]

Spacecraft history


C106 was built as the sixth production Dragon capsule.[6]


This new Dragon was launched in September 2014 for the NASA CRS SpX-4 mission to the International Space Station (ISS). It splashed down in October 2014, and was successfully retrieved.[7][8]


To prepare for its second flight, it had its heatshield replaced; the hull, avionics, and Draco thrusters were refurbished.[9]


The refurbished Dragon was relaunched in June 2017 for the NASA CRS SpX-11 mission to the ISS.[10][5] It splashed down and was successfully recovered in July 2017.[11]
