SpaceX Crew-2

SpaceX Crew-2 launched on a Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center on April 23, 2021, and docked to the International Space Station on April 24, 2021. The mission, commanded by NASA astronaut Shane Kimbrough, set a record for the longest spaceflight by a U.S. crewed spacecraft, lasting 199 days. The international crew of four (NASA, JAXA, and ESA astronauts) returned to Earth on November 8, 2021, with a splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Pensacola, Florida.
