The SpaceX launch director polled the NASA and SpaceX leaders in Firing Room 4 at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida and gave a GO for fueling for the Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft that will carry NASA astronauts Stephen Bowen and Warren Hoburg, along with UAE (United Arab Emirates) astronaut Sultan Alneyadi and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev, for a science expedition mission aboard the International Space Station. Liftoff from Launch Complex 39A is set for 12:34 a.m. EST.
At 35 minutes prior to launch, SpaceX teams will begin loading rocket grade kerosene followed by liquid oxygen for the first and second stages of the Falcon 9 rocket. The Dragon will transition to internal power five minutes before launch, and the launch director will give the final GO for launch 45 seconds before liftoff.
