What happened?
- The eight-hour rendezvous was the fastest trip to the ISS ever completed by an American spacecraft.
- The four-person crew — NASA's Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, CSA's Joshua Kutryk, and Roscosmos's Sergey Teteryatnikov — includes three astronauts on their first spaceflight.
- The crew will spend six months aboard the ISS conducting hundreds of experiments, including heart disease and Parkinson's research, crop production, blood-flow studies, and pharmaceutical testing.
- The launch was delayed by a mechanical issue in the spacecraft's propulsion system before NASA and SpaceX cleared the mission to proceed.
SpaceX's Crew-13 docked with the ISS roughly eight hours after an October 1 launch from Cape Canaveral. The four-person, three-agency crew begins a six-month Expedition 75 increment focused on biomedical and agricultural research. Crew Dragon is part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program.
