The RP-1 rocket fuel load for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-6 mission launch is complete.
It’s just a few minutes until liftoff (1:45 a.m. EST), and all looks good for the Crew-6 launch! There is still time to tune in to NASA TV or the agency’s website to watch the rocket and spacecraft blast off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
