The Crew Dragon capsule that will fly SpaceX's next astronaut mission has arrived at the launch pad. That flight, called Ax-4, is scheduled to lift off atop a Falcon 9 rocket on June 10 from historic Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. SpaceX just took a step toward meeting that timeline: It has delivered the Dragon to Pad 39A's hangar, the company announced via X on Thursday
That capsule " a brand-new vehicle, with no flights yet under its belt " will carry four people to and from the International Space Station (ISS) for the Houston-based company Axiom Space. It will be Axiom's fourth such mission, which explains the Ax-4 name.
