NASA and SpaceX to Launch Crew Dragon Freedom Mission at 1:17 PM ET to Bring Back Stranded Astronauts
Sep 28, 2024, 02:14 PM
NASA and SpaceX are preparing for the launch of the Crew Dragon Freedom spacecraft on Saturday. The mission will send NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov to the International Space Station (ISS). This launch is significant as it aims to bring back two NASA astronauts, Barry Wilmore and Sunita Williams, who have been stranded in orbit after flying on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft. The Crew Dragon capsule will have two empty seats reserved for their return. The launch is scheduled for 1:17 PM ET from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, despite iffy weather conditions.
