NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 Astronauts Complete Dry Dress Rehearsal Ahead of ISS MissionPreviousNext

NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 mission is set to launch no earlier than October 1 from Florida, sending four astronauts to the International Space Station for a six-month mission. The crew, including NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, Canadian astronaut Joshua Kutryk, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov, recently completed a dry dress rehearsal. This full launch day practice involves suit checks, travel to the launch pad, and boarding the Crew Dragon spacecraft. Once aboard the ISS, they will conduct scientific experiments and maintain station operations.
