NASA, SpaceX Agree on Plans for Crew Launch Day Operations We are finalizing plans with SpaceX for launch day operations at Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center as they prepare for the company’s first flight test with astronauts on board. The Dragon capsule is scheduled for launch at 2.49 am EST (that's 1.19 pm IST) on Saturday, 2 March from Florida. Once the Dragon capsule is launched into space and heading for the space station, updates from NASA and SpaceX's social feeds will keep us looped in on how the rest of the mission goes. Where to watch?

SpaceX is going to launch its Falcon Heavy super heavy-lift launch vehicle for its third mission, STP-2, a demonstration flight for the United States Department of Defense. This flight will be the hardest and most challenging for Falcon Heavy so far, and its performance and capability will be pushed to its limits. Falcon Heavy's upper stage will perform four separate burns to inject itself to various orbits and deploy its numerous payloads. The booster will lift off from Launch Complex 39A, Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Recovery will be attempted for all three cores and both fairing halves.
