Inside the crew suit-up room in the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, on Nov. 15, 2020, the suit-up team helps Crew-1 astronauts into the SpaceX spacesuits. From left, NASA astronaut Victor Glover, pilot, and NASA astronaut Michael Hopkins, spacecraft commander, are wearing SpaceX spacesuits in preparation for NASA SpaceX’s Crew-1 mission. Crew-1 is the first regular crew mission of a U.S. commercial spacecraft with astronauts to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. The SpaceX Crew Dragon Resilience capsule will launch atop the company’s Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A to the space station for a six-month science mission.
