After standing down from launch on Wednesday May 27, SpaceX is now targeting Saturday, May 30 for Falcon 9’s launch of Crew Dragon’s second demonstration (Demo-2) mission from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This test flight with NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley on board the Dragon spacecraft will return human spaceflight to the United States. The instantaneous launch window opens at 3:22 p.m. EDT, or 19:22 UTC, with a backup instantaneous launch opportunity available on Sunday, May 31 at 3:00 p.m. EDT, or 19:00 UTC. Tune in here to watch the launch webcast. Coverage will begin about 4 hours before liftoff. Demo-2 is the final major test for SpaceX’s human spaceflight system to be certified by NASA for operational crew missions to and from the International Space Station. SpaceX is returning human spaceflight to the United States with one of the safest, most advanced systems ever built, and NASA’s Commercial Crew Program is a turning point for America’s future in space exploration that lays the groundwork for future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Watch history unfold on Saturday, May 30, as NASA and SpaceX launch astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley to the International Space Station. This mission marks the first time since the retirement of the space shuttle in 2011 that humans will fly to the space station from U.S. soil. The mission's first launch attempt on Wednesday, May 27 was scrubbed due to weather conditions.  Tune in starting at 11 a.m. EDT as NASA and SpaceX provide joint, live coverage from launch to arrival at the space station. Teams are targeting 3:22 p.m. EDT for the launch of the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft atop a Falcon 9 rocket from historic Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Crew Dragon is scheduled to dock to the space station on Sunday, May 31.

DM-2 demonstrates the Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon's ability to safely transport crew to the space station and back to Earth and it is the last major milestone for certification of Crew Dragon. NASA has extend the mission duration to allow the astronauts to participate as Expedition 63 crew members. The exact duration of the mission will be determined in orbit based on the readiness of the first operational crew mission.

SpaceX's first crewed mission! NASA, SpaceX to Launch First Astronauts to Space Station from U.S. Since 2011. A new era of human spaceflight is set to begin as American astronauts once again launch on an American rocket from American soil to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley will fly on SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft, lifting off on a Falcon 9 rocket at 4:33 p.m. EDT May 27, from Launch Complex 39A in Florida, for an extended stay at the space station for the Demo-2 mission. The specific duration of the mission is to be determined. Next Launch window begins at Saturday (May 30) 03:22 pm ET (07:33 pm GMT)] The Crew Dragon Demo-2 mission is intended to finish the validation process for human-rated spaceflight operations on SpaceX spacecraft. If successful, the demonstration flight will allow for human-rated certification of the Crew Dragon spacecraft, and the Falcon 9 rocket, the crew transportation system, launch pad, and SpaceX's capabilities, etc. The mission includes two astronauts testing of Crew Dragon capabilities on orbit All docking operations will be autonomously controlled by the Crew Dragon spacecraft but monitored by the flight crew in case manual intervention becomes necessary. For the first time since the last flight of the Space Shuttle in 2011, U.S. astronauts will go to orbit from American soil. The Dragon spacecraft is capable of carrying up to seven passengers to and from Earth orbit, and beyond. It is the only spacecraft currently flying that is capable of returning significant amounts of cargo to Earth, and will soon become the first private spacecraft to take humans to the space station. The first stage booster will attempt to land on the floating barge ‘Of Course I Still Love You’, in the Atlantic Ocean. Upon returning to Earth, the Crew Dragon capsule will parachute into the Atlantic Ocean.

NUOVO TENTATIVO DI LANCIO PER LA MISSIONE SPACEX DRAGON DEMO-2 Il 30 Maggio 2020 si tenterà nuovamente di scrivere un pezzo di storia dell'esplorazione spaziale e noi lo seguiremo in Diretta Video! Un nuovo veicolo spaziale, il Dragon V2, partirà dalla Terra con a bordo due Astronauti: Doug Hurley e Bob Behnken. Questi coraggiosi uomini saranno i primi a testare per la prima volta il nuovo veicolo spaziale automatizzato della SpaceX. Se e solo se la missione avrà successo, si potrà attestare la certificazione del volo spaziale umano sulla nuova navicella Crew Dragon, del razzo Falcon 9, del sistema di trasporto dell'equipaggio, della rampa di lancio e delle capacità di SpaceX. Il giorno successivo l'equipaggio attraccherà alla Stazione Spaziale Internazionale per unirsi all'equipaggio della missione in corso sulla ISS, l'Expedition 63.

The two astronauts will be aboard the Crew Dragon, a state of the art, completely autonomous vehicle that will launch on one of the reusable Falcon 9 rockets. Demo-2 is a huge mission, it is the final demonstration flight for SpaceX, and the result could make or break if the new era of human spaceflight can be brought back to the United States.
