On Sunday, March 16 at 12:04 a.m. ET, SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft autonomously docked with the International Space Station. Approximately 29 hours earlier at 7:03 p.m. ET on Friday, March 14, Falcon 9 launched the spacecraft and Crew-10 to orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

During their time on the orbiting laboratory, the crew will conduct new research to prepare for human exploration beyond low-Earth orbit and to benefit humanity on Earth.

The Falcon 9 first stage booster launching the Crew-10 flight, tail number B1090, will be making its second flight to space and back. It first flew on Dec. 17, 2024, carrying the seventh and eighth O3b mPOWER satellites to medium Earth orbit for satellite communications company, SES. Following stage separation, the Falcon 9 booster landed at Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
