SpaceX Crew-13 astronauts defy superstition
Ars Technica·
SpaceX's upcoming 13th mission under NASA's Commercial Crew Program will proceed as Crew-13, directly challenging the common superstition surrounding the number thirteen. This mission marks a significant flight for the program, and the decision to embrace the number rather than avoid it highlights a modern, pragmatic approach to spaceflight operations. The astronauts are proceeding with their mission without altering the designation due to any perceived bad luck associated with the number.
