astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken will dock to the International Space Station (ISS) in the next hour.
The men are making their way up to the orbiting platform after their launch on a Falcon-9 rocket from Florida's Kennedy Space Center on Saturday.
The Nasa crew are now travelling in a Dragon capsule supplied and operated by a private company, SpaceX - a first in the history of human spaceflight.
Their ship is due to attach to the ISS at around 14:30 GMT (15:30 BST).
It will be a fully automated procedure; Hurley and Behnken won't need to intervene unless there is a problem.
