SpaceX Crew Dragon Launch
« on: March 01, 2019, 01:27:54 PM »
Crew Dragon is scheduled for its first flight in approximately 12 hours.  At 648 UTC on Saturday morning, a Falcon 9 will blast the capsule toward the International Space Station.  The Falcon first stage will attempt recovery to a barge at sea.

Now we know why Skuzzy is retiring.  He's got a spot on the ISS.   :D

While a bit late, I would like to state that the Dragon capsule successfully docked with the ISS for the cargo delivery, and then successfully recovered to a water landing in the Atlantic Ocean on the 8th of March.
