NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 Mission Prepares for October 1 Launch to International Space Station

Four new crew members are preparing to launch to the International Space Station (ISS) on NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 mission, with a target launch date of October 1. The Dragon spacecraft is expected to reach the orbiting outpost less than nine hours after liftoff. During their six-month expedition, the astronauts will support hundreds of scientific investigations, including ISS National Lab-sponsored projects focused on benefiting life on Earth and enabling a robust low Earth orbit economy.
