NASA, SpaceX try once again to launch American astronauts to Space Station
May 30, 2020
Florida (USA), May 31 (ANI): NASA and SpaceX are scheduled to launch astronauts Douglas Hurley and Robert Behnken on a mission to the International Space Station at 3:22 pm Eastern Time. 'Demo -2' launch marks the first flight of NASA crew from the US soil since 2011 and the first launch of a rocket owned by a private company: SpaceX, the commercial space company founded by Elon Musk. NASA has assigned two of its most experienced astronauts, Behnken and Hurley to the upcoming SpaceX mission. If successful, this would be a big win for SpaceX's first-ever crewed mission in the company's 18-year history.
