The "Crew-11" mission will include NASA astronauts Commander Zena Cardman and Pilot Mike Fincke, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Mission Specialist Kimiya Yui, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Mission Specialist Oleg Platonov.

The mission is set to launch no earlier than July 2025, according to NASA.
