Crew-4 mission astronauts Bob Hines, Kjell Lindgren, Jessica Watkins, and Samantha Cristoforetti walk out of Kennedy Space Center’s Neil A. Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building during a dry dress rehearsal on April 20, 2022. A team of SpaceX suit technicians assisted them as they put on their custom-fitted spacesuits and checked the suits for leaks. SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket and Crew Dragon, named Freedom by the Crew-4 crew, will launch the astronauts to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. The mission is scheduled to lift off at 5:26 a.m. EDT on April 23, 2022, from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy.
