(Hawthorne, CA) -- SpaceX is done making the capsules that carry astronauts to the International Space Station.

The company will reportedly focus on reusing the fleet of four Crew Dragons they already have. The capsules can fit up to seven passengers, and are the first private spacecrafts to take people to the ISS. They've been on five missions in the past two years.

NASA says the next launch has been delayed to April 6th.
