[b]Crew Members Climb Aboard Crew Dragon[/b] NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley arrived at Launch Complex 39A and took the elevator up to the 255-foot level of the fixed service structure. They then took a short flight of stairs to the crew access level, where they crossed the crew access arm – the walkway from the fixed service structure over to the White Room and the waiting SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft. Spacecraft commander Hurley entered the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft first, followed shortly after by Demo-2 joint operations commander Behnken, seated to Hurley's right. SpaceX technicians helped them get situated and buckled in. As the astronauts boarded, their seats were configured in the upright position; later, prior to closure of the spacecraft's side hatch, the seats will be rotated into a reclined position for flight.
