Summary

Description

English: A colorful sunrise marks the dawn of a new era in human spaceflight ahead of NASA’s SpaceX Demo-2 mission, as the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Crew Dragon spacecraft stand ready for launch at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on May 29, 2020. The rocket and spacecraft lifted off from historic Launch Complex 39A at 3:22 p.m. EDT on May 30, carrying NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley to the International Space Station as part of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program, returning human spaceflight capability to the U.S. after nearly a decade. Demo-2 is SpaceX’s final flight test, paving the way for NASA to certify the crew transportation system for regular, crewed flights to the orbiting laboratory.
