Crew-4 mission astronaut Jessica Watkins relaxes in the suit room in the Astronaut Crew Quarters inside Kennedy Space Center’s Neil A. Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building on April 27, 2022. A team of SpaceX suit technicians assisted the crew as they put on their custom-fitted spacesuits and checked the suits for leaks. Watkins, along with Bob Hines, Kjell Lindgren, and Samantha Cristoforetti, will launch aboard SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, powered by the company’s Falcon 9 rocket, to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. Crew-4 is scheduled to lift off today at 3:52 a.m. EDT from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy.
