NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 mission crew members were scheduled to arrive at the agency's Kennedy Space Center at approximately 1 p.m. EDT on Saturday, Sept. 26, according to a NASA blog post published Sept. 25. They were to fly in from Johnson Space Center in Houston to begin their final days of launch preparations.

The crew consists of NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins, the commander, and pilot Luke Delaney, along with CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Joshua Kutryk and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov. NASA said the four were to deliver brief remarks and take questions from media before heading to Astronaut Crew Quarters at Kennedy.

After arrival, NASA said the crew would begin suit checks, equipment reviews and mission briefings, while continuing quarantine protocols and completing final preflight operations. Launch was targeted for no earlier than 11:10 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 1.
