Television

Update 5/30 11 a.m. ET: The SpaceX/NASA launch is scheduled for Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 p.m. ET, barring any changes. You can watch a live stream of the launch on NASA’s YouTube channel or on its website, or on SpaceX’s YouTube channel. If today’s launch is scrubbed, they’ll try again tomorrow at 3 p.m. ET. 


 Update 5/27 1:15 p.m. PT: Due to weather concerns, the SpaceX Launch of NASA astronauts was called off on Wednesday, May 27, but the plan is to reschedule for later this week. The next opportunities to launch are Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 p.m. ET and Sunday, May 31 at 3 p.m. ET. 


America will meet a couple of milestone moments on Wednesday as a spacecraft carrying astronauts takes off from U.S. soil for the first time since 2011 — and for the first time from a commercial, non-government spacecraft. 

Two passengers, NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, will shoot up into the great beyond from the Kennedy Space Center aboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket and Crew Dragon capsule; they’re expected to lift off from the pad 39A at 4:33 p.m. EST for a 19-hour journey to the International Space Station where they will stay approximately one to four months. Lucky for us, all the historic action is able to be watched online and on TV. Here’s how to watch:
