Launch day

This is a big, big day for SpaceX. Today's mission is Demo-2, the second demonstration of Crew Dragon. Upon successful completion of this mission, SpaceX will be certified by NASA for operational crew missions to and from the International Space Station.

From their website: "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 MoonMarsand beyond."

To watch NASA's livestream, go here. To watch with SpaceX, go here.

If the launch cannot go forward today as planned at 4:33 p.m. EDT, I will post the re-scheduled date and time.
