NASA, SpaceX Target October for Crew-13 Launch From Florida to ISS
The delay followed a fixed oxidizer leak in Dragon’s propulsion system, and the four astronauts are scheduled to reach the station about 9 hours after liftoff.
- NASA has set an October 1 launch date for the SpaceX Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station, following a delay caused by an oxidizer leak in the Dragon capsule's propulsion system.
- Following the delay, NASA and SpaceX confirmed the leak is resolved. "The team successfully replaced an oxidizer valve in Dragon's propulsion system after a leak was detected earlier in processing," the agencies stated.
- Currently, NASA astronaut Jessica Watkins and NASA astronaut Luke Delaney, with mission specialists Joshua Kutryk of the Canadian Space Agency and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov, are quarantining in Houston at Johnson Space Center before flying to Kennedy Space Center on Sept 26th.
- Expedition 75 will host the four-person crew for a seven-month mission conducting scientific experiments on heart and Parkinson disease, crop production, and blood flow abnormalities.
- Backed by NASA's Commercial Crew Program, which recently secured $946 million to support missions through Crew-17, this flight utilizes a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft to continue station operations.
