NASA unveils next crew of astronauts who will fly to space station
NASA and SpaceX have named the four astronauts for the Crew-13 mission, targeted to launch in September to the International Space Station. The mission will be the first spaceflight with astronauts aboard since NASA launched the Artemis II mission on April 1.
NASA and SpaceX have named the four astronauts for the Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station (ISS), scheduled to launch in September. The ISS has been in low-Earth orbit for over 25 years, serving as a test bed for scientific research in microgravity. The Crew-13 astronauts will live and work on the ISS for several months aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule launched on a Falcon 9 rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The ISS is operated through a global partnership of space agencies, including NASA, Roscosmos, and the European Space Agency. Over 290 spacefarers from 26 countries have visited the ISS, including 170 from the United States.
