Weather conditions are expected to be near perfect.<\/p>\n<p>The Crew Dragon capsule, dubbed Endeavour, is scheduled to dock with the ISS at 2:38 am (0738 GMT) on Tuesday if all goes as planned.<\/p>\n<p>NASA&#8217;s Stephen Bowen and Warren Hoburg, Russia&#8217;s Andrey Fedyaev and Sultan al-Neyadi of the United Arab Emirates are to spend six months on the orbiting space station.<\/p>\n<p>Neyadi, 41, will be the fourth astronaut from an Arab country and the second from the oil-rich United Arab Emirates to journey to space; his countryman Hazzaa al-Mansoori flew an eight-day mission in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Neyadi described the upcoming mission as a &#8220;great honor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hoburg, the Endeavour pilot, and Fedyaev, the Russian mission specialist, will also be making their first space flights.<\/p>\n<p>Fedyaev is the second Russian cosmonaut to fly to the ISS aboard a SpaceX rocket. NASA astronauts fly regularly to the station on Russian Soyuz capsules.<\/p>\n<p>Space has remained a rare venue of cooperation between Moscow and Washington since the Russian offensive in Ukraine placed the two capitals in sharp opposition.<\/p>\n<p>Such exchanges have continued despite those tensions.<\/p>\n<p>Bowen, a veteran of three space shuttle missions, said politics rarely come up while in space.\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-gallery lightGallery\">\n<div data-thumb=\"https:\/\/scx1.b-cdn.net\/csz\/news\/tmb\/2023\/russian-cosmonaut-andr-2.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/scx2.b-cdn.net\/gfx\/news\/2023\/russian-cosmonaut-andr-2.jpg\" data-sub-html=\"Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev sits next to a photo of the patch bearing the names of the four members of SpaceX Dragon Crew-6 mission.\">\n<figure class=\"article-img text-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/scx1.b-cdn.net\/csz\/news\/800a\/2023\/russian-cosmonaut-andr-2.jpg\" alt=\"Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev sits next to a photo of the patch bearing the names of the four members of SpaceX Dragon Crew-6\" title=\"Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev sits next to a photo of the patch bearing the names of the four members of SpaceX Dragon Crew-6 mission.\"\/><figcaption class=\"text-left text-darken text-truncate text-low-up mt-3\">\n                Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev sits next to a photo of the patch bearing the names of the four members of SpaceX Dragon Crew-6 mission.<br \/>\n            <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re all professionals.

The Endeavour capsule has flown into space three times.<\/p>\n<p>NASA pays the private SpaceX company to ferry astronauts to the flying laboratory roughly every six months.<\/p>\n<p>The space agency expects Crew-6 to have a handover of several days with the four members of the SpaceX Dragon Crew-5, who have been stationed on the ISS since October. Crew-5 will then return to Earth.\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rescue_capsule\"><\/span>Rescue capsule<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Also currently aboard the ISS are Russian cosmonauts Dmitry Petelin and Sergei Prokopyev, as well as NASA astronaut Frank Rubio.<\/p>\n<p>They had been scheduled to return home on March 28 but the cooling system of their Soyuz MS-22 capsule was damaged by a tiny meteoroid in mid-December while docked with the ISS.<\/p>\n<p>An uncrewed Russian Soyuz capsule, MS-23, took off on Friday from Kazakhstan to bring the three astronauts home. They are now scheduled to return to Earth in September.<\/p>\n<p>The ISS was launched in 1998 at a time of increased US-Russia cooperation following the Cold War space race.<\/p>\n<p>Russia has been using the aging but reliable Soyuz capsules to ferry astronauts into space since the 1960s.<\/p>\n<p>But in recent years, Russia&#8217;s space program has been beset by a litany of problems that have led to the loss of satellites and vehicles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-main__note mt-4\">\n                                                  \u00a9 2023 AFP<\/p>\n<p>                                        <!-- print only --><\/p>\n<div class=\"d-none d-print-block\">\n<p>                                                <strong>Citation<\/strong>:<br \/>\n                                                SpaceX Dragon crew to blast off for ISS (2023, February 26)<br \/>\n                                                retrieved 26 February 2023<br \/>\n                                                from https:\/\/phys.org\/<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>\/2023-02-spacex-dragon-crew-blast-iss.html<\/p>\n<p>                                             This document is subject to copyright.
