NASA and SpaceX are gearing up for the launch of the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, scheduled for April 21, 2025, as part of the 32nd resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS).

The launch will take place from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

The Dragon spacecraft will deliver a variety of scientific investigations across multiple fields, including biology, Earth and space science, and technology development.

The ISS serves as a crucial platform for NASA's future exploration plans, including missions to the Moon and Mars under the Artemis campaign.

Since November 2000, astronauts have continuously occupied the ISS, hosting 283 visitors from 23 countries.

Media accreditation for the launch is open to U.S. journalists, with an application deadline set for April 4, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. EDT.

Credentialed media will receive confirmation emails upon approval, and inquiries regarding accreditation can be directed to NASA's media contacts.
