Meet Astronaut Woody Hoburg: NASA’s SpaceX Crew-6 Pilot

A childhood dream of flying in space is about to come true for Pennsylvania native Woody Hoburg; join him for a look at his incredible path of aeronautics and engineering and computer science and robotics—and time as an EMT with Yosemite Search and Rescue—that has brought him to a launch pad in Florida for the culmination of a dream of a lifetime.

NASA and SpaceX are targeting no earlier than 1:45 a.m. EST Monday, Feb. 27, 2023, for the launch of the agency’s Crew-6 mission to the International Space Station from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center.

The four Crew-6 crewmates—Commander Stephen Bowen, Pilot Warren “Woody” Hoburg, Mission Specialist United Arab Emirates astronaut Sultan Alneyadi, and Mission Specialist Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev (Russia)—will dock the Dragon spacecraft, named Endeavour, to the forward port on the space station’s Harmony module about 23 hours after liftoff.

An international partnership of space agencies provides and operates the elements of the International Space Station (ISS). The principals are the space agencies of the United States, Russia, Europe, Japan, and Canada. The ISS has been the most politically complex space exploration program ever undertaken.
