Sains · Crew-13 arrivalCrew-13 Reaches ISS in Under 8 Hours as Crew-12 Prepares to LeaveDitulis 2 Oktober 2026 pukul 10.30 UTCTontonTranskrip0:09Dragon Grace carried four astronauts to the space station in under eight hours.0:13The replacement crew is now aboard preparing for a long-duration science mission and0:17helping the outgoing astronauts finish a seven-month stay.0:20What does their arrival settle, and what still stands between Crew-12 and its0:24journey home?0:25Dragon Grace docked at the International Space Station's Harmony Module forward port0:29at 7:05 p.m.0:30Eastern Daylight Time on October 1, 2026.0:33Liftoff was at 11.10 that morning, making the journey seven hours and 55 minutes.0:38All four crew members subsequently entered the station and joined Expedition 75.0:43Docking and entry are completed milestones, not expectations.0:46The exact times of hatch opening and station entry remain unavailable.0:50An earlier in-flight update that the astronauts were safely in orbit and had removed0:54their launch suits described their condition during the journey, not their arrival.0:58Jessica Watkins commands the four-person crew.1:01Luke Delaney is the pilot.1:03Both are NASA astronauts.1:05Canadian Space Agency astronaut Joshua Kutrick and Ross Cosmos cosmonaut.1:09Sergei Tetaryatnikov are mission specialists.1:12Those are the full identities behind the first names.1:15Jessica, Luke Josh, and Sergei used during launch coverage.1:19Watkins was selected as a NASA astronaut in 2017, and this is her second flight to1:24the station.1:24The other three astronauts' prior flight histories are not established, so they1:29cannot be described as first-time space flyers.1:32Their flight roles also do not establish which experiments or maintenance jobs each1:36will perform.1:37Nine Merlin engines powered Falcon 9's first stage with a combined maximum thrust of1:411.7 million pounds, not that amount from each engine.1:45The rocket launched from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force1:49Station in Florida.1:50After the second stage engine shut down, the crew reached its expected orbit and1:54Dragon separated from that stage.1:55The first stage completed a landing at Landing Zone 40 at Cape Canaveral.1:59Despite the shared number, the launch complex and landing zone are different sites.2:03Booster recovery, the astronauts' orbital insertion, and their later docking are2:08three distinct milestones.2:09GRACE is this individual Dragon spacecraft's name, and this was its second flight to2:14the station.2:14October 1 became the specific launch date after earlier planning placed the mission2:19no earlier than mid-September.2:20Assignment announcements on April 23rd and May 1 use that earlier window.2:25No earlier than sets an earliest possibility, not a deadline.2:28The October launch does not establish that a promised September deadline was missed.2:32The flight met the under-8-hour transit forecast, even though docking happened five2:36minutes after the expected clock time.2:38The estimates of about eight hours and under eight hours fit the completed journey.2:43They are not conflicting accounts of the arrival.2:45The orbital conditions allowed a trip close to the fastest possible for this launch.2:49That establishes a rapid transit, not an independently verified all-time speed2:54record.2:55Crew-13's planned stay is up to six months, but there is no fixed return date or2:59exact mission length in days.3:01The work ahead includes investigations concerning crew health, reliable food3:04production in space, technologies for deep space exploration, and biomanufacturing.3:09These are prospective research areas, not completed experiments or demonstrated3:13benefits.3:13Specific experiment names, protocols, equipment, and individual scientific3:17assignments have not been established, nor have particular inspections, repairs,3:21servicing, or equipment replacements.3:23The station provides a working orbital laboratory.3:26Getting the crew there does not prove that any particular research result has3:29already been achieved.3:30The station itself is planned for decommissioning and removal from orbit at the end3:34of 2030.3:35That remains an agency plan, not a completed shutdown or deorbit, and it does not3:39establish a precise December 34 operation.3:42The longer-term plan also does not turn Crew-13's intended six-month stay into a3:46guaranteed schedule.3:47Crew-12 could depart as soon as October 5th, weather permitting, after a short3:51handover.3:52Crew-13 will help prepare that return as the outgoing crew wraps up its seven-month3:56mission, but individual handover responsibilities have not been established.4:00October 5th is a conditional departure possibility, not a confirmed undocking4:04appointment, landing date or splashdown time.4:07Arrival and station entry are settled, the full return timetable is not.4:11Crew-13's arrival puts the replacement team aboard, while Crew-12's journey home4:16still depends on the handover, departure clearance, and suitable weather.Baca
