Mission insignia

Fram2 is a planned private human spaceflight mission, operated by SpaceX with a Crew Dragon spacecraft on behalf of entrepreneur Chun Wang. During the mission, Wang and his all-civilian crew — Jannicke Mikkelsen, Eric Philips and Rabea Rogge — will be propelled into a polar orbit, a first for a human spaceflight mission. During the three to five-day mission, the crew says they will conduct scientific research.[2][3]
