SpaceX Crew 5 Launch | |

Senior Forum Moderator  10/05/2022 10:40 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SpaceX is launching Crew-5 today, 1 hour 23 minutes and counting. Nicole Mann and Josh Cassada were originally supposed to fly on the Boeing Starliner, but due to the delays and problems with that capsule they are now going to fly on crew Dragon instead since they're both rookies and NASA is trying to get them some experience. Joining them will be Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata and Russian cosmonaut Anna Kikina.  |

This Crew Dragon is named Endurance and previously launched Crew-3 which splashed down earlier this year. Quoting: Astromut Glad you are safe and sound after Hurricane Ian. Should be a good launch. |

Probably not, still recovering from hurricane Ian, but we'll see. |

User ID: 16476021 United States10/05/2022 12:44 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | By the way, it takes 29 hours to reach the ISS. Quoting: Doc McBaffled 4 peoples inside a capsule that is probably smaller than your average bedroom for 29 hours. Then they'll spend 6 month in orbit. I wouldn't do that. Space is probably fun for a couple of hours, 6 months.... not so much. There is a lot of training that goes before the mission. Those with the capacity would say 6 months is not enough |
