No, I don't envy Elon Musk at all, he is a horrible person. He bought SpaceX and Tesla using profits from his father's emerald mine in apartheid South Africa. He is a successful and lucky business man, who bought companies and then he promoted them. He is a good promoter.
They aren't back yet. Sure hope someone has been feeding their doggies and kitties. Their mail must be piled all over the porch..OOPS, digital mail now, not to worry, I'm too old, ah, Not.....
As of 9:40 AM Eastern Daylight time the capsule is at the intl. space station, but has yet to return to earth to complete the mission.
