SpaceX creates a Crew Dragon simulator that lets you play at being an astronaut and practise manually docking with the International Space Station
2020-05-14
[DailyMail] The Crew Dragon docking simulator — which mirrors the craft's real controls — is free and browser-based

Players take control of a virtual capsule's thrusters to guide it in to the docking port on the space station

The real thing will launch on a mission to the ISS on May 27, 2020, lifting off from the Kennedy Space Center

Astronauts Douglas Hurley and Robert Behnken will most likely be docked by computer control, however
