Liftoff is less than an hour away.
The launch team just verified controllers can soon begin loading propellants – liquid oxygen and refined, rocket-grade kerosene called RP-1 – into the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket’s first and second stages.
Launch weather officers with Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s 45th Weather Squadron predict a greater-than-95%chance of favorable weather conditions for the 7:03 p.m. EDT liftoff.
Live coverage of the Crew-10 broadcast is airing on NASA+. Learn how to watch NASA content through a variety of platforms, including social media.
