NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 Completes Dry Dress RehearsalElyna Niles-Carnes February 9, 2026 2:55 PM(...) NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 crew members achieved a critical prelaunch milestone by completing their dry dress rehearsal at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Sophie Adenot, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev practiced launch day operations, including suiting up, traveling to the pad, and boarding the spacecraft. These operations are done without fueling the rocket, which is why it’s called a dry dress rehearsal. The launch team also practiced countdown operations and confirmed the spacecraft, crew access, and emergency egress procedures are on track before fueling the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.Earlier today, agency leaders and partners held a prelaunch news conference to discuss the upcoming Crew-12 mission. Watch the full briefing here.(...)
NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 Final Launch Operations Rehearsal (NHQ202602090009)NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren monitors the countdown during a dress rehearsal in preparation for the launch of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying the company's Dragon spacecraft on NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission with NASA astronauts Jessica Meir, Jack Hathaway, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Sophie Adenot, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev onboard, Monday, Feb. 9, 2026, in the control room of SpaceX’s HangarX at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

SpaceX @SpaceX 4:17 PM · Feb 9, 2026Falcon 9 is now targeted to launch Crew-12 to the @Space_Station no earlier than Thursday, February 12 due to unfavorable weather conditions in the ascent corridor. Teams will continue to keep an eye on the weather → http://spacex.com/launches/crew12
Adenot Sophie @Soph_astro 4:54 PM · Feb 8, 2026L-3! All in the name of style! 🤣😅🤭Arriving in Florida means shifting our sleep schedule to prepare for launch. We put on these blue light–filtering glasses two hours before our planned bedtime, set at 14:00 Florida time since we arrived at Cape Canaveral… ⏰ The alarm goes off at 21:45!🤔 Our launch is scheduled for 12:01 CET – Paris time – on Wednesday, which is also 6:01am local time in Florida – EST... or 5:01am Houston time – CST. We need about 8 hours between waking up and engine ignition. To be at 100% of our energy during the dynamic phases of flight, getting a proper “night” of sleep right before is essential!Second advantage: the clocks on board the @Space_Station are set to UTC, which is one hour behind Paris winter time (CET). In other words, by shifting our sleep cycle here in Florida, we’re already doing part of the adaptation needed for life in orbit. As a result, we’ll be more operational when we arrive!Hahaha! Are you ready for the countdown?Leave a comment:🚀😅 -> if I managed to twist your brain with all these time zonesor🚀❤️-> if you understood everything!!!📷 @Astro_Jessica and @Soph_astro 🤩 (Credit: NASA/ESA)#Crew12 • #εpsilon
William Harwood @cbs_spacenews 2:00 PM · Feb 10, 2026Crew 12: As expected, NASA is now targeting Friday, at 5:15am EST (1015 UTC) for launch of a two-woman, two-man crew to the International Space Station; the agency passed up a possible Thursday launch opportunity because of continued rough seas and high winds along the spacecraft's northeasterly ascent trajectory over the Atlantic Ocean
William Harwood @cbs_spacenews 2:01 PM · Feb 10, 2026Crew 12: Moderate or better sea states and winds are required off shore along the east coast of the US in case a Crew Dragon crew runs into problems requiring an immediate abort, capsule separation from its Falcon 9 booster and a parachute descent to splashdown
Josef Aschbacher @AschbacherJosef 3:03 PM · Feb 10, 2026When Mother Nature calls the shots, delays are part of the journey, but @Soph_astro remains in great spirits while waiting for the weather to align. It was a pleasure catching up with her and the entire #Crew12. Their passion, patience, and perseverance are exactly what make space exploration so inspiring. #εpsilon

Human Spaceflight @esaspaceflight 10:45 AM · Feb 13, 2026🚀 Launch is just around the corner for @Soph_astro and the #εpsilon mission!What will her journey to space look like? Let’s break it down:🔹 T+2 min: First stage separates and returns to Earth🔹 T+9 min: The crew reaches orbit — zero-g indicator floats!🔹 Crew-12 continues its path toward the @Space_Station🔗 https://esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2021/04/Dragon_liftoff_to_orbitGo #Crew12! Allez #εpsilon!
After reaching orbit, Dragon will begin a carefully choreographed approach to the @Space_Station. The duration of the journey to their new home and workplace can vary from 16 to 36 hours depending on the flight profile.Crew-12 is expected to dock Saturday at 20:15 GMT /21:15 CET.🔗 https://esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2021/04/Dragon_rendezvous_and_docking_with_the_International_Space_StationGo #Crew12!
