Exciting news for space enthusiasts! Tonight, SpaceX's Crew-10 astronaut mission is set to arrive at the International Space Station (ISS), and you can catch every moment live!

The Crew-10 mission, which launched successfully on March 14 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, is carrying four astronauts from three different nations to the ISS. The Crew Dragon capsule, aptly named "Endurance," is scheduled to dock with the station's Harmony module at approximately 11:30 p.m. EDT (0330 GMT, March 16). Don't miss the live stream, starting at 9:45 p.m. EDT (0145 GMT) on NASA's channels or on Space.com if available.

But that's not the only exciting event on the docket! After the Crew-10 capsule docks, the hatches between Endurance and the ISS are expected to open around 1:05 a.m. EDT (0505 GMT). The current crew aboard the ISS will host a welcome ceremony for the newcomers about 30 minutes after hatches open.

The Crew-10 team includes NASA astronauts Anne McClain, who serves as commander, and pilot Nichole Ayers, alongside Takuya Onishi from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and Kirill Peskov from the Russian space agency Roscosmos. They are primed for a six-month mission aboard the ISS, a pivotal part of the ongoing international collaboration in space exploration.

This mission marks a significant shift, as the Crew-10 astronauts will replace four crew members already stationed on the ISS: NASA’s Nick Hague, and Suni Williams, along with Butch Wilmore, and Roscosmos' Aleksandr Gorbunov. Hague and Gorbunov have been aboard since the last SpaceX launch in late September for Crew-9, while Williams and Wilmore have been working in space since early June after being stationed there on Boeing’s Starliner mission, which was originally planned for a shorter duration but faced delays due to technical issues.

Adventurous times lie ahead in orbit for these courageous astronauts! Stay tuned for updates as they connect with the ISS and embark on their next exciting chapter in space exploration. Will this mission unveil new insights about our universe? Don’t miss out on witnessing history in the making!
