After splashdown, the crew will attempt to exit the vehicle without assistance to assess their physical capabilities.

SpaceX's Fram2 mission, the first crewed mission to ever orbit Earth's North and South poles, is set to Earth on Friday morning. The Crew Dragon capsule has carried four civilians from four countries on a five-day mission that will be entirely concluded when the craft splashes down in the Pacific Ocean off the California coast at approximately 9:19 a.

The Fram2 mission, paid for and led by a cryptocurrency billionaire who is flying with three guests, is on track to return after a journey on a unprecedented polar orbit.
