Hours before launch, NASA shared video of the group smiling and waving their spacesuits.

Led by Commander Nicole Aunapu Mann, the crew of four is scheduled to spend six months in the International Space Station’s microgravity laboratory.

Upon arrival, there may be a short handover time with the Crew 4 project participants.

Crew-four was launched on April 27 and is scheduled to land off the coast of Florida later this month.
