• Space.com

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — After some uncertainty and a few delays, the SpaceX mission to send a relief crew for the space station's current astronauts is set to lift off later this evening (March 14).

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is poised to launch the Crew-10 mission for NASA, ferrying a crew of four to the International Space Station (ISS) for a six-month residency. The rocket and its Crew Dragon Endurance spacecraft are set to lift off from Launch Complex-39A here at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) today at 7:03 p.m. EST (2348 GMT). SpaceX called off its planned March 12 launch of the Crew-10 astronaut mission for NASA due to a hydraulics issue with a clamp device on ground equipment securing the crew's Falcon 9 rocket to the launch pad.

You can watch the launch live on Space.com and at the top of this page and on Space.com homepage, as well as on NASA's NASA+ streaming service and SpaceX's Crew-10 mission updates and through the company's account on X. Follow our Crew-10 mission live updates page for the latest.
