Crew walkout
Like how all crewed missions have started from Kennedy Space Center, the crew walked out to meet the press and say final goodbyes to family. This ramp is the same place first humans to step foot on the Moon stood, as well as every crew that flew on the Space Shuttle.
Crew-5 members
- Nicole Mann (NASA, Commander)
- Josh Cassada (NASA, Pilot)
- Koichi Wakata (JAXA, Mission Specialist 1)
