NASA+ Coverage Begins: NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 Mission
Good afternoon and welcome to NASA’s coverage of the agency’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission to the International Space Station.
In four hours, NASA astronauts Anne McClain, commander and Nichole Ayers, pilot, along with mission specialists JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takuya Onishi and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov, will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft at 7:48 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, March 12, from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Crew-10 members have eaten and are currently suiting up in their spacesuits inside the Astronaut Crew Quarters of the Neil A. Armstrong Operations and Checkout building at NASA Kennedy.
Upon reaching the orbiting laboratory, the newly arrived crew will join NASA’s SpaceX Crew-9, who will familiarize them with ongoing science and station maintenance work, which supports a safe transition of operations aboard the space station. Following a brief handover and pending weather conditions, Crew-9 NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, along with Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, will board a SpaceX spacecraft, undock from station, and splashdown off the coast of Florida.
Live coverage of the Crew-10 broadcast is airing on NASA+. Learn how to watch NASA content through a variety of platforms, including social media.
NASA will continue providing updates about the launch on the mission blog, @commercial_crew on X, or commercial crew on Facebook.
