After a weather-related delay on Thursday, SpaceX and NASA successfully launched four astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) on Friday. The Falcon 9 rocket carried the Crew-11 mission, which is set to dock with the ISS on Saturday.

Editor’s Note: This successful launch marks another milestone in public-private space collaboration, ensuring continued crew rotations for the ISS. It also highlights SpaceX's growing reliability in manned missions, keeping space exploration and research on track. For everyday folks, it’s a reminder that human spaceflight is becoming more routine—even if it’s still pretty awe-inspiring.

SpaceX and NASA had to call off the Crew-11 astronaut launch at the last minute due to bad weather, specifically incoming clouds, just a minute before the scheduled liftoff on July 31. The delay was captured on video, showing how unpredictable weather can disrupt even the most carefully planned space missions.

SpaceX successfully launched its Crew-11 mission on August 1, sending four astronauts to the International Space Station aboard the Crew Dragon Endeavour. This marks the sixth flight for this particular spacecraft, setting a new record for reuse in human spaceflight.

SpaceX's Crew-11 mission is set to dock at the International Space Station (ISS) early on August 2, and the event will be streamed live for viewers to watch. The four astronauts aboard will join the ISS crew after their scheduled arrival at 3 a.m. EDT.

Editor’s Note: This is another milestone for SpaceX and NASA's partnership, showcasing the growing accessibility of space travel. Live coverage lets the public share in the excitement of human spaceflight, reinforcing how far we've come in making space missions a collaborative, watchable experience.

SpaceX's latest mission to the International Space Station (ISS) didn't just carry astronauts—it also delivered bacteria that cause disease. Scientists are sending these microbes to study how they behave in microgravity, which could help us better understand infections in space and maybe even improve treatments on Earth.

SpaceX is gearing up to send NASA’s Crew-11 mission to the International Space Station, marking another milestone in public-private space collaboration. The mission will ferry astronauts to the ISS, continuing the routine but still awe-inspiring work of keeping the station crewed and operational.

SpaceX successfully launched 19 Starlink internet satellites into orbit from California using a Falcon 9 rocket, which then made a precision landing on a drone ship in the ocean—a now-routine but still impressive feat of reusable rocket technology. The mission was captured on video, showcasing SpaceX's continued advancements in spaceflight.
