SpaceX is set to launch NASA’s four-person Crew-10 mission to the International Space Station. Launch will be in Crew Dragon Endurance atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Aboard will be NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers along with Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi and Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov. The four will take about a day to reach the outpost before docking with the forward port of the Harmony module. They will remain aboard the ISS for about six months.

Crew-10 will relieve the Crew-9 astronauts, which includes NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, as well as NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams, who were originally part of the Boeing Starliner mission in June of 2024.

Wilmore and Williams were supposed to be aboard the ISS for about a week to 10 days testing the first crewed Starliner spacecraft. However, the safety of the vehicle was in question. As such, Starliner was returned (safely) without its crew, who are now expected to return to Earth in Crew-9 by the end of March 2025.
