US EditionSpaceX Delivers Four Astronauts to International Space Station
FLORIDA, AUG 1 – The Crew-11 mission increased the ISS crew to 11 and will conduct biomedical and Earth science experiments during an extended six-month stay, NASA said.
- On Aug. 1, SpaceX launched Crew-11 to the ISS in 15 hours, boosting the station's population to 11 members.
- Despite picture-perfect morning skies, the first launch attempt on July 31, 2025 was scrubbed due to weather, prompting a reschedule to the next day.
- Built on public-private partnerships, the Crew-11 mission uses Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon capsule, marking the eleventh operational flight under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program.
- They will stay aboard the International Space Station for roughly six months, conducting biomedical research, Earth observation, and experiments producing higher volumes of human stem cells and nutrients.
- Building on its partnership history, the mission points to longer flights, as Crew-11 may settle into an eight-month routine, ending U.S. reliance on Russia after the Space Shuttle program’s retirement.
