Cosmonaut Anna Kikina will become the first Russian crew member to launch on a US spacecraft since 2002 when she straps into a seat aboard SpaceX’s Dragon Endurance capsule Wednesday for a flight to the International Space Station.

I got a good night's sleep last night and feel fine. Soon you'll put on your spacesuit and head to the launch pad.

Good morning from the Kennedy Space Center!

I’m waiting outside the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building for three astronauts and one cosmonaut to see their families before making the drive to LC-39A.

Who are the support astronauts for the family?
One is Hansen for sure. And maybe Kimiya Yui and Alvin Drew?
