Pilot Victor Glover, spacecraft commander Michael Hopkins, mission specialist Soichi Noguchi, and mission specialist Shannon Walker participate in a SpaceX training exercise on July 22, 2020, at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida in preparation for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-1 mission. Glover, Hopkins, and Walker are all NASA astronauts; Noguchi is a Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut. The exercise involved simulating an emergency situation prior to liftoff at Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A. Crew-1 will be the first operational mission to the International Space Station under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, following the agency’s certification of SpaceX’s crew transportation system.
