SpaceX CRS-30, also known as SpX-30, is a Commercial Resupply Service mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched on 21 March 2024.[1] The mission was contracted by NASA and flown by SpaceX using Cargo Dragon C209. This was the tenth flight for SpaceX under NASA's CRS Phase 2, the fourth flight for Cargo Dragon C209, and the first Dragon 2 launch from SLC-40, as the pad was reconfigured and a new Crew Access Tower and Arm was added.[2][3]
