Inside the Press Site auditorium at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, NASA and SpaceX officials conduct a postlaunch news conference on May 30, 2020, following the launch of the agency’s SpaceX Demo-2 mission to the International Space Station. From left are: Commercial Crew Program Manager Kathy Lueders; International Space Station Program Manager Kirk Shireman; NASA Chief Astronaut Pat Forrester; and Chief Engineer Elon Musk. Liftoff of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Crew Dragon spacecraft, carrying NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, occurred at 3:22 EDT from historic Launch Complex 39A. Behnken and Hurley are the first astronauts to launch to the space station from soil since the end of the Space Shuttle Program in 2011. Part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, this will be SpaceX’s final flight test, paving the way for the agency to certify the crew transportation system for regular, crewed flights to the orbiting laboratory.
