Description:
- SpaceX Crew-11 is the eleventh operational NASA Commercial Crew Program flight and the 19th crewed orbital flight of a Crew Dragon
spacecraft. The mission transported four crew members – NASA astronauts Zena Cardman and Michael Fincke, JAXA astronaut Kimiya Yui, and
Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Platonov – to the International Space Station (ISS).
- Crew: Zena Cardman was originally assigned to SpaceX Crew-9, but she and Stephanie Wilson were removed from that flight,
which launched with only two crew members and returned with the crew of the Boeing Crew Flight Test due to issues with the Boeing Starliner
Calypso, while Michael Fincke and Kimiya Yui were initially assigned to Boeing Starliner-1, but they were reassigned to Crew-11 due to testing with the Boeing Starliner capsule.

Mission details:
- ISS exp.73/74.
- This will be the first spaceflight for Crew-11 commander Cardman, who was originally scheduled to launch on the Crew-9 mission.
Cardman was removed from that mission because Crew-9 ended up launching to the International Space Station (ISS) with only two astronauts
on board in order to make room for NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams on the return trip. The duo were left without a dedicated
ride home after the Boeing Starliner spacecraft that ferried them to the ISS on its first crewed test flight in June 2024 encountered leaks and propulsion issues.
- The eleventh SpaceX operational mission in the Commercial Crew Program was scheduled for launch on July 31, 2025, but was scrubbed due to weather.
The mission marked the final landing of a Falcon 9 booster on Landing Zone 1, which was then retired.[11] At 14 hours, 43 minutes, and 10 seconds, it is the fastest Crew Dragon rendezvous to date.
