SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket, carrying a Dragon spacecraft, is poised to launch from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The spacecraft will transport four astronauts: Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, both NASA astronauts, Joshua Kutryk from the Canadian Space Agency, and Sergey Teteryatnikov, a cosmonaut from Roscosmos.
The launch, originally scheduled for 11:10 a.m. EDT, is now less than an hour away. The SpaceX closeout team has already detached the crew access arm, which will soon retract away from the Dragon spacecraft. The countdown is ongoing, with more milestones to come. Live coverage of the launch can be accessed through various platforms, including NASA's official website, and by following @NASAKennedy on X, and NASA Kennedy on Facebook.
