On May 1, a reporter pointed out that Mr. Wilmore and Ms. Williams, two veteran astronauts, trained for this mission longer than Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins did for the Apollo 11 moon landing.
They're in good spirits, Steve Stich, program manager for NASA's commercial crew program, said during a news conference on May 24.
Ms. Williams was born in Ohio but grew up in Massachusetts. She was a test pilot in the U.S. Navy and has more than 3,000 hours flying 30 different aircraft.
