NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Joshua Kutryk, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov touched down at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, at 12:56 p.m. EDT, following a flight from the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston that included a brief refueling stopover in Mississippi.

A crew arrival media event is streaming live on NASA Kennedy’s YouTube channel, featuring the crew, as well as representatives from NASA Kennedy, and the agency’s Low Earth Orbit Program.

NASA’s SpaceX Crew-13 crew members will spend the remaining days before launch to the International Space Station in quarantine and conducting final preflight operations at Kennedy.

Liftoff aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is targeted no earlier than 11:10 a.m. EDT Thursday, Oct. 1, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

Crew-13 is SpaceX’s 13th crew rotation mission for NASA and the company’s 14th carrying NASA astronauts to the space station, including the Demo-2 test flight.

More details about the launch will be posted on the mission blog, @NASAKennedy on X, or NASA Kennedy on Facebook.
