NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley are headed to the space station in SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft, lifting off on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

You and the family can witness it all live on NASA Television or their YT stream.

Awesome...love the live space X videos. Watching those rocket boosters return back to earth and land vertically all by themselves is the icing on the cake

Will absolutely be tuning in. I try to watch every one of their launches. Like above, watching them them land the rockets is amazing.

I'll be tuned in. Got a couple parts from my shop on that piece of equipment...plus it's my Bday on the 27th so that'll be a good reason for a cold one and some viewing.

I designed the Dragon Mockups at the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory(NBL), training and ground support equipment for NASA rescue and recovery. I'll be watching. 2nd pic is a Orion trainer.

Today is the day! Weather is looking better today than it was earlier in the week but if weather forces them to scrub the launch, SpaceX has backup launch windows scheduled for both Saturday (3:22 p.m. EDT) and Sunday (3:00 p.m. EDT).
