SpaceX Crew-1[3][4] (also known as USCV-1 or simply Crew-1)[5] was a spaceflight in 2021 and 2022. It was the first crewed operational flight of a Crew Dragon spacecraft.

The Crew Dragon spacecraft Resilience was expected to launch on 31 October 2020 on a Falcon 9 from the Kennedy Space Center, LC-39A. The launch was postponed due to bad weather and was eventually launched on 15 November.[6]

It carried NASA astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover and Shannon Walker along with JAXA astronaut Soichi Noguchi, all members of the Expedition 64 crew.[7][8] The mission is the second overall crewed orbital flight of the Crew Dragon,[9] pending the certification of the vehicle.[10]
