SpaceX Crew-4 Dragon Hatch Closure | International Space Station
At 10:20 a.m. EDT Friday, Oct. 14, 2022, the hatch closed between the Dragon Freedom spacecraft and the International Space Station in preparation for undocking and return to Earth of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-4 mission with NASA astronauts Bob Hines, Kjell Lindgren, and Jessica Watkins, as well as European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti of Italy.
Crew-4 is SpaceX’s fourth operational mission for NASA’s Commercial Crew Program (CCP). The “Freedom” Crew Dragon spacecraft is scheduled to autonomously undock and depart the International Space Station on October 14, 2022, at 15:35 UTC (11:35 EDT).
Dragon’s hatch closing, undocking, and splashdown coverage is airing live on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website. NASA also will host an audio-only post-splashdown news teleconference.
