NASA announced the Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station will launch on October 1, with Russian cosmonaut Sergei Teterytinov aboard. [1] The flight uses a Crew Dragon spacecraft launched by a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, at 18:10 Moscow time. [6] Separately, NASA stated that the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, launched on August 30, has sufficient fuel reserves to operate for at least 22 years, more than double its original 10-year design life. [2] The telescope carries an advanced coronagraph to directly image planets in narrow orbits, including Jupiter-like worlds. [5] NASA confirmed in September 2024 that Roman transmitted first test data from its Wide Field Instrument while en route to the L2 Lagrange point. [7] The James Webb Space Telescope, meanwhile, continues to enable studies of exoplanet atmospheres and weather, similar to how meteorologists forecast on Earth. [3] In 2022, JWST observed the centaur Chariklo during a stellar occultation - the first such occultation planned specifically for the telescope. [4]
