SpaceX Crew-2 Astronaut Suit-Up
A signed banner hangs in the elevator inside the Astronaut Crew Quarters at the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building (O&C) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 23, 2021. NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Megan McArthur, along with JAXA astronaut Akihiko Hoshide and ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet, will exit the O&C and board two Tesla vehicles for the trip to Launch Complex 39A. Crew-2 is the second regular crew mission of a U.S. commercial spacecraft with astronauts to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. The SpaceX Crew Dragon Endeavour will launch atop the company’s Falcon 9 rocket from Pad 39A to the space station for a six-month science mission.
