SpaceX CRS-35, also known as SpX-35, is a scheduled International Space Station (ISS) cargo resupply mission contracted by NASA and operated by SpaceX. The flight is expected to launch in the fall of 2026, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. It will be SpaceX's 35th cargo delivery mission under the Commercial Resupply Services program.[3]

Manifest

CRS-35 will carry replacement ISS Roll Out Solar Arrays.[1] The mission will also carry a payload designed by Langston University.[4]

Launch

CRS-35 was originally scheduled to launch in November 2026. However, during the launch of Soyuz MS-28 for the ISS on 27 November 2025, the launch pad at the Baikonur Cosmodrome's Site 31 suffered extensive damage and was rendered inoperable, resulting in an acceleration of future resupply missions.[1][5] In December 2025, CRS-35's launch was to be accelerated to August 2026.[5][6] Following the rapid repair of Site 31, CRS-35 was moved back to fall 2026.[1]
