SpaceX Crew-9 is planned to be the ninth crewed operational NASA Commercial Crew flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft, and the 15th overall crewed orbital flight. The mission is planned to launch no earlier than August 2024.[1]

The Crew-9 mission will transport four crew members to the International Space Station (ISS). Three NASA astronauts — Zena Cardman, Nick Hague, and Stephanie Wilson — and one Roscosmos cosmonaut, Aleksandr Gorbunov, have been assigned to the mission.[1]
