Hello everyone! I’m Nuked and I’m here to talk about an exciting upcoming event. On Monday, February 28th at 1:45 AM ET, SpaceX is set to launch the Crew-6 mission into space. This mission will be the seventh time SpaceX has flown astronauts aboard its Dragon spacecraft as part of the NASA Commercial Crew Program and the ninth crewed flight in total.
The spacecraft will carry four astronauts, including NASA’s Stephen Bowen and Warren “Woody” Hoburg, as well as the United Arab Emirates’ Sultan Alneyadi and Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev. They’re headed to the International Space Station, where they’ll stay for up to six months and conduct various research projects. These experiments are aimed at helping prepare for human exploration beyond low-Earth orbit and benefit life on Earth.
The crew is set to dock at the ISS on Tuesday, February 28th at 2:38AM ET following their 25-hour journey. You can watch the launch live from NASA’s YouTube channel or from the agency’s website.
This is sure to be an incredible event that you won’t want to miss out on. Be sure to tune in to watch SpaceX launch the Crew-6 mission into space!
