NASA reported on October 1, 2026, that the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft carrying the Crew-13 mission was approaching the International Space Station after launching that morning at 11:10 a.m. from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. According to the agency, docking at the forward port of the station's Harmony module was scheduled for approximately 7 p.m. EDT, with Dragon designed to dock autonomously while crews on the spacecraft and station monitored the approach.

NASA said the hatches were expected to open about one hour and 45 minutes after docking. The crew comprises NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Joshua Kutryk and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov, who were to join the Expedition 75 crew for a long-duration science mission aboard the orbiting laboratory.

These details reflect the schedule and crew assignments as described in NASA's October 1 report; the docking, hatch opening and joint mission are described as planned rather than confirmed completed events.
