That may be true but, if you make it back, you’ll have a hell of a story to tell the grandkids!

Of course, by then space travel might be  like the Jetsons, as common as flying in a plane is today, and the kids might say “ What’s the big deal?” and not be too impressed!

The Crew Dragon and the Cargo Dragon avionics are very similar.  Crew Dragon does offer limited ability to override some automated functions via a touch screen with what they call "Manual Interfaces"... but nothing like real reaction controls... Behnkin and Douglas did test these Manual Interfaces. But this crew is pure civilian.  Should they get into a Gemini 8 type situation and they have no pilot controls and no Armstrong...  They're screwed.

Automation is a wonderful thing.  When it works.
All those lines of code are written by people and we are fallible.
You can only correct what you know, not what you don't.
At 17,000+ MPH things go wrong quickly.
Call a Mayday...  no one is coming.

I believe they can take control if desired.  The first crew tested manual control.

Agreed.

Also, no longer under crew control.
What was it the original 7 fought for.... control
otherwise, they were just "Spam in a Can"

Was watching the civilian SpaceX launch and was wondering if Clyde would go if possible.  What say you Clyde?  You could be the pilot.
