The two astronauts have been stranded in space for the past eight months due to technical difficulties. They will be replaced by Crew 10 at the International Space Station (ISS) on March 12. The astronauts will be spending the final two weeks in isolation to prevent exposure to any illnesses. The crew will board a Dragon spacecraft on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA Kennedy in Florida. The flight is scheduled to take off at 7:48 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, March 12, from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, with a scheduled arrival time of 7:50 p.M. EDT. The mission will be the first to use the SpaceX Dragon capsule since the launch of the Dragon in 2011. The Dragon is a modified version of the Space Shuttle that can carry a crew of up to seven astronauts. The first crew to use it was the crew of the CRS-1 mission, which launched on November 26, 2011. It is the first time the Dragon has been used to carry two crew members at a time.
