During live television coverage of NASA SpaceX’s Crew-1 launch on Nov. 15, 2020, Kyle Herring, NASA Communications, discusses the launch and the agency’s 20th anniversary of human presence on the International Space Station at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Crew-1 is the first regular crew mission of a U.S. commercial spacecraft with astronauts to the space station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. The Crew Dragon Resilience capsule will launch atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A carrying NASA astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Soichi Noguchi to the space station for a six-month science mission.
