Four astronauts are set to lift off Sunday night from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida aboard a SpaceX rocket bound for the International Space Station.
The crewed flight will be the second for SpaceX’s Dragon capsule and the first since NASA officially certified the small spacecraft to carry people. Aboard will be NASA astronauts Mike Hopkins, Shannon Walker, and Victor Glover, along with Japanese astronaut Soichi Noguchi.
“As a crew, we are ready,” said Hopkins, the mission commander, in a press conference last week. “We are ready for this launch, we are ready for the six months of work that is waiting for us on board the International Space Station, and we are ready for the return.”
The Dragon is a relatively new ride for astronauts. Its first crewed flight took place in May, when Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken launched on a jaunt to the station. They stayed for roughly two months before returning to earth and splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico in early August.
