Photos of the Day: SpaceX's Demo-2 Launch Vehicle is on the Pad!

In preparation for its static fire (scheduled for tomorrow), SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket sits vertical on the pad at Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A...on May 21, 2020.

Just thought I'd share these photos and video of SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket, with the Crew Dragon capsule at the top, sitting on the pad at Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A in Florida after it was raised to vertical position this morning.


As of right now, the Flight Readiness Review by NASA and SpaceX officials to solidify the May 27 launch date for Demo-2 will conclude tomorrow...with the static fire for the Falcon 9 also scheduled to take place on the same day. The excitement is building!

The Falcon 9 Demo-2 rocket is rolled out of SpaceX's Horizontal Integration Facility to be transported to the pad at Launch Complex 39A...on May 21, 2020.
