SpaceX Crew-3 astronaut Matthias Maurer, with the European Space Agency and mission specialist, participates in a countdown dress rehearsal at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Oct. 28, 2021, to prepare for the upcoming Crew-3 launch. Maurer runs through checkouts of his SpaceX spacesuit inside the crew suit-up room in the Neil A. Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building. Maurer, along with NASA crew members Raja Chari, commander, Kayla Barron, mission specialist, and Tom Marshburn, pilot, will launch aboard the Crew Dragon atop the Falcon 9 to the International Space Station. Launch is targeted for no earlier than Nov. 6 at 11:36 p.m. EDT from Launch Complex 39A. Crew-3 is the third crew rotation flight to the space station for NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, and the first flight of a new Crew Dragon spacecraft.

NASA’s SpaceX Crew-3 astronauts participate in a countdown dress rehearsal at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Oct. 28, 2021, to prepare for the upcoming Crew-3 launch. Matthias Maurer, with the European Space Agency, is inside the crew access arm leading to the company’s Crew Dragon spacecraft during the rehearsal. The four-person crew will launch aboard the Crew Dragon atop the Falcon 9 on Oct. 31 to the International Space Station. Launch is targeted for 2:21 a.m. EDT from Pad 39A. Crew-3 is the third crew rotation flight to the space station for NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, and the first flight of a new Crew Dragon spacecraft.
