NASA’s SpaceX Crew-2 Landing and Crew-3 Launch

The International Space Station welcomed four new crew members with the arrival of the SpaceX Crew-3 astronauts on Thursday, Nov. 11, less than 24 hours after lifting off from our Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Launching Wednesday, Nov. 10, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket propelled the Crew Dragon Endurance spacecraft with NASA astronauts Raja Chari, Tom Marshburn, and Kayla Barron, as well as ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Matthias Maurer, into orbit to begin a six-month science mission on the space station. 

The SpaceX Crew-2 astronauts safely splashed down into the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Florida Monday, Nov. 8, aboard the Crew Dragon Endeavour spacecraft. NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Megan McArthur, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, and ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Thomas Pesquet spent 199 days in orbit, setting a record for the longest spaceflight by a U.S. crewed spacecraft.

Throughout their mission, the Crew-2 astronauts contributed to a host of scientific investigations, maintenance activities, and technology demonstrations. In addition, they conducted four spacewalks and multiple public engagement events while aboard the orbiting laboratory.
