SpaceX Crew-1

**SpaceX Crew-1** (also known as **USCV-1** or simply **Crew-1**) was a spaceflight in 2021 and 2022. It was the first crewed operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft.

The Crew Dragon spacecraft _Resilience_ was expected to launch on October 31, 2020, on a Falcon 9 from the Kennedy Space Center, LC-39A. The launch was postponed due to bad weather and was eventually launched on November 15.

It carried NASA astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover and Shannon Walker along with JAXA astronaut Soichi Noguchi, all members of the Expedition 64 crew. The mission is the second overall crewed orbital flight of the Crew Dragon, pending the certification of the vehicle.

## Mission

The _Resilience_ space capsule will dock at the ISS after launch, where the astronauts will stay for about 6 months before returning back to earth.
