SpaceX will launch the the second operational mission of its Crew Dragon vehicle as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Transportation Capability Program (CCtCap), carrying two NASA astronauts, one JAXA astronaut, and one ESA astronaut to the International Space Station. This mission will be the second operational crewed flight to launch from the United States since the end of the Space Shuttle program in 2011. Previously, the SpaceX DM-2 and Crew-1 missions utilized the Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon’s ability to safely transport crew to the space station. The Crew-1 astronauts are still on the International Space Station and are scheduled to return on April 28, 2021. The Crew Dragon and Falcon 9 are now certified for human spaceflight. This mission will last approximately six months in duration and the crew will return to Earth sometime around October 2021.

Spacecraft Commander: Shane Kimbrough
Pilot: Megan McArthur
