Crew-3

SpaceX Crew-3 will be the third crewed operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft, and the fifth overall crewed orbital flight. The mission is currently planned for launch in October 2021. At a NASA briefing held on 29 September 2020, Benji Reed, senior director of human spaceflight programs at SpaceX, said the final launch date for Crew-3 will be determined by the refurbishment of the Resilience capsule after Crew-1 recovery. The Crew-3 mission will transport four members of the crew to the International Space Station. As of January 2021, three astronauts have been assigned to the mission; it has been speculated that the fourth crew member may be a Russian cosmonaut under a possible exchange agreement with Roscosmos.
