Crew-13 is scheduled to leave Cape Canaveral for the International Space Station and begin a roughly seven-month mission.<\/p>\n

NASA reported only a 55% chance of favorable weather the day before launch, so the time can still move.<\/p>\n

Why the first schedule slipped<\/h2>\n

An oxidizer leak was found in the Dragon propulsion system on August 29, removing a September 12 target. Technicians replaced an oxidizer valve and completed a static fire and crew dress rehearsal.<\/p>\n

Who is flying<\/h2>\n

NASA\u2019s Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Joshua Kutryk and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov make up the crew. They will conduct research and maintenance and overlap briefly with Crew-12.<\/p>\n

Why both 13th and 14th are correct<\/h2>\n

NASA calls it SpaceX\u2019s 13th operational crew-rotation mission and Dragon\u2019s 14th astronaut flight under Commercial Crew when the Demo-2 test flight is included. The counts use different denominators.<\/p>\n

What still needs confirmation<\/h2>\n

A backup opportunity is available October 2 at 14:47 UTC, and weather or engineering could cause another delay. Liftoff, orbit insertion and docking require separate live confirmation from NASA and SpaceX.<\/p>\n
