Coordinates come from the current launch record. This map shows launch pads, not a flight trajectory or viewing prediction.

Recent results already available in cache
Only completed records already fetched by the site are shown. This is a partial archive; an absent result does not mean the launch failed. No extra archive API requests are made.
Schedules are refreshed through the existing shared cache. Normal feed records may omit webcast, booster or timeline details; open the existing mission-details page to check its fuller source record. Saved calendar entries do not update automatically when a launch moves.
Mission details
35th commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station operated by SpaceX. The flight will be conducted under the second Commercial Resupply Services contract with NASA. Cargo Dragon 2 brings supplies and payloads, including critical materials to directly support science and research investigations that occur onboard the orbiting laboratory.
Current status: The launch vehicle successfully inserted its payload(s) into the target orbit(s).
Weather concern: Cumulus Cloud Rule

Launch time, window and countdown
The displayed local time is converted by your browser from the published international timestamp. Spaceflight schedules frequently use terms such as NET (No Earlier Than), TBD or broader day/month targets. Spaceflight Now explicitly distinguishes NET and TBD on its public schedule, and NASA also publishes launches with labels such as “No Earlier Than” and “Under Review.” For that reason, this page shows the upstream time precision instead of treating every date as equally firm.
Use the Next Rocket Launch page for the nearest mission, or compare more missions on the launches this week page. If a countdown reaches zero, confirm the operator’s live coverage before assuming liftoff occurred; holds and scrubs can happen very late in the sequence.
Rocket and launch site
Falcon 9 Block 5 is listed for this mission with SpaceX. The current launch record places the mission at Space Launch Complex 40 · Cape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA.
Launch pads and ranges matter because azimuth restrictions, overflight safety, recovery zones and target inclination can constrain when and how a mission flies. Browse the Rocket Launch Sites page to compare other active locations represented in the upcoming schedule.

Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) are a series of flights awarded by NASA for the delivery of cargo and supplies to the International Space Station.The first CRS contracts were signed in 2008 and awarded $1.6 billion to SpaceX for twelve cargo Dragon and $1.9 billion to Orbital Sciences for eight Cygnus flights, covering deliveries to 2016. The Falcon 9 and Antares rockets were also developed under the CRS program to deliver cargo spacecraft to the ISS.
The International Space Station programme is tied together by a complex set of legal, political and financial agreements between the sixteen nations involved in the project, governing ownership of the various components, rights to crewing and utilization, and responsibilities for crew rotation and resupply of the International Space Station. It was conceived in 1984 by President Ronald Reagan, during the Space Station Freedom project as it was originally called.
Official / programme information ↗After liftoff: continue tracking
If this mission deploys Earth-orbiting spacecraft, they can appear later in Recently Launched Satellites once public orbital elements are available. For spacecraft travelling beyond Earth orbit, use the Deep Space section. The launch event and the later orbital catalogue are separate datasets, so payload tracking may not be available immediately after liftoff.
Sources and schedule caveats
Launch schedule data and associated imagery on this page come from Launch Library 2 / The Space Devs and are cached server-side by SpaceTracker.live. Schedule records can change as providers update readiness, weather, range coordination or mission constraints.
