I love the Dragon 2 spacecraft, but situations like this make one appreciate Dream Chaser’s ability to land on a runway. There was not that much rush in this case, but Dragon might need to wait up to 12 hours before landing.
Haven’t we all had to leave early due to someone feeling ill ? Bound to happen eventually. Actually surprised it didn’t happen sooner.
