SpaceX/Dragon

A Falcon 9 with a Crew Dragon launched NASA's Crew-13 from Cape Canaveral on 1 October 2026. The four astronauts are on a science expedition to the International Space Station, and the trip is short enough that they arrive the same day.

• Launched 11:10 a.m. EDT from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral.
• Crew: Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney (NASA), Joshua Kutryk (CSA), Sergey Teteryatnikov (Roscosmos).
• About 7 hours 50 minutes to arrival; docking planned around 7 p.m. at the forward port of the Harmony module.
