It was first reported in mid-2022 that SpaceX might make changes to SLC-40 so that it could launch Crew Dragon missions from that pad. Now it has been confirmed. NASA wants it done as a backup for LC-39A since SpaceX is building a Starship “Stage Zero” pad just about 300m away. But modifying SLC-40 will require extensive work and it seems that will be quite disruptive to the current F9 missions from that pad.
