Expedition 64 will be the 64th long-duration expedition to the International Space Station, scheduled to begin in October 2020 with the undocking and departure of Soyuz MS-16. The Expedition will consist of three crew members launched onboard Soyuz MS-17, with the remainder of the crew scheduled to be launched aboard the USCV-1 flight[1] currently set to launch in August or September 2020,[2][3] the first operational flight of SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft and the Commercial Crew Program, although this relies on the success of SpaceX's DM-2 mission, currently underway as of 30 May 2020.[4][5][6] USCV-1 may last for 210 days until late March,[7] if it flies on time for Expedition 64. The mission is scheduled to end on 18 April 2021 with the departure of Soyuz MS-17.[8]
