Dubbed the Resilience, the Falcon 9 vessel took off from the Kennedy Space Center on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>While calling themselves the <a href=\"https:\/\/inspiration4.com\/\">Inspiration4<\/a>, the astronauts will stay in Earth\u2019s orbit for three days and conduct research \u201cto advance human health on Earth\u201d and for future space flights. This launch is the first to allow civilians to go beyond suborbital levels in space.<\/p>\n<p>Benjamin Reed, SpaceX\u2019s Director of Crew Mission Management, gave reference points for the crew\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is significant and historic because it\u2019s going to be the highest that any humans have gone into orbit since the Hubble servicing missions,\u201d he explained. \u201cAnd, in fact, they\u2019ll be above the current orbit of the Hubble and above the current orbit of the International Space Station.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Follow along and watch today&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Inspiration4?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Inspiration4<\/a> mission journey: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/v1t31sIbdW\">https:\/\/t.co\/v1t31sIbdW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Inspiration4 (@inspiration4x) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/inspiration4x\/status\/1438234025961955328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 15, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The private citizen crew consists of a variety of backgrounds, including an internet executive, a jet pilot and an engineer. Hayley Arceneaux, the chief medical officer, is the youngest American to go to space. The astronaut described the research that will be conducted while in the cosmos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so excited about the medical research that we\u2019re going to be doing on this flight and we\u2019re going to be collecting a lot of swabs to learn about the microbiome, how that changes in flight,\u201d she stated. \u201cWe\u2019re going to be performing ultrasounds, evaluate for fluid shifts as well as performing some cognitive tests in setting radiation effects of going to our high altitude.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arceneaux is a survivor of childhood bone cancer. Additionally, the mission will raise awareness and funds for St. Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital. The Inspiration4 has a fundraising goal of $200 million in donations for the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>SpaceX was founded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk and has assisted in several government missions. However, space tourism and a Mars landing are not outside of the company\u2019s future aspirations.<\/p>\n<p>Mission Control plans for the Inspiration4 crew to land safely off the coast of Florida after completing their objectives.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sens-daines-warren-introduce-bill-to-award-congressional-gold-medals-to-13-fallen-service-members\/\">Sens.
