NASA and SpaceX have announced that they are now targeting no earlier than late September for the launch of Crew-13 to the International Space Station. A new target launch date will be shared once confirmed.
Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronaut Joshua Kutryk, NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov will fly to the International Space Station for an approximately six-month mission.
Late last week, NASA announced that the date for Crew-13's launch would be adjusted to address an oxidizer leak on the Dragon capsule's propulsion system. This was detected during standard prelaunch testing.
